Questionnaire on SDGs
Since 2023, Yokohama City has been working as one of the leading cities of the SDGs Cluster, integrating with other initiatives of overseas cooperation for sustainable urban development. This year, Yokohama City hosted the 12th ASIA SMART CITY CONFERENCE(ASCC) in November 2023 to share best practices and lessons learnt among Asian cities to achieve sustainable development with a focus on decarbonization (GX). We also held a SDGs session event under the CITYNET Program during the 12th ASCC.
 
To make these CITYNET activities more effective and interactive, we would like to survey and collect information on the current state of SDGs promotion of CITYNET members and the challenges they face.
The survey result will be utilized to enhance partnerships among members and other partner organizations, consider the possibility of inter-city cooperation, improve the activities of SDGs Cluster and seek for any other opportunities of international assistance.

Could you please fill in an online questionnaire noted below in full or as much as possible?
It would be appreciated if you could submit the completed questionnaire online by 22nd December 2023.

In case you have any problem filling in the online questionnaire, please contact
<ml-R5YokohamaCityNet@gx.n-koei.co.jp>.
