Abstract
This working paper was prepared by Wayne Shand and the International Institute for Environment and Development. It was developed in
partnership with the Coalition for Urban Transitions, which is a major international initiative to support decision makers to meet the objective
of unlocking the power of cities for enhanced national economic, social, and environmental performance, including reducing the risk of climate
change. The research presented here was conducted in support of the Coalition’s Economics workstream, and builds on previous University
of Leeds and Coalition research on the economic and social benefits of low-carbon cities. The opinions expressed and arguments employed
are those of the authors.
