Template Instructions

Each Megacities Partnership is inherently unique to the city - the local policy, scientific, and cultural contexts, the data available, and goals vary in each Megacity and drive the direction of the Partnership.  Nonetheless, there are some basic frameworks (templates) for certain steps in the process (e.g., information collection, needs assessment, and capacity building) that are relevant to all Megacities and inform the progression of the project.  The templates provide meaningful structure to the project, while still maintaining flexibility to meet each Megacity's needs.

The Template Instructions provide an overview of the various Templates developed for use throughout a Megacities Partnership or any air quality management planning process to facilitate the creation of concrete deliverables. 

The Template Instructions are available below in English, Spanish, Russian and French.
