Cities are the stage for exporting urban environmental infrastructure.

By taking advantage of intercity cooperation:

Benefits of Using Intercity Cooperation Frameworks

20

It is possible to develop comprehensive projects from initial stages.

Long-term follow-up can be carried out after the project ends.

Direct access to partner city governments is possible and activities of Japanese companies can be supported.

Human resources can be developed for the management and operations of urban environmental infrastructure.

Objectives can be achieved in partner cities with fewer administrative costs by facilitating the entry of private companies through public-private partnerships (PPP).
