For these reasons, we hereby adhere to the R20 Charter and we confirm that we share the values and objectives that this document describes.

We welcome R20’s initiative to work alongside faiths, government, industry and investors in accelerating the emergence of low carbon climate resilient infrastructure projects. We hereby mandate R20 to explore opportunities for the development of such projects within our city, specifically and not confined to the following:

• Tree Planting • Water and Sanitation • Alternative Energy • Pilgrims Welfare • Transport • Media • Education • Food • Drainage and Erosion Control • Waste Management

We confirm that these projects, and any projects that we may subsequently identify in reference to this mandate, are part of our sustainability strategy and contribute to our intended nationally determined contribution (INDC). In support of the mandate conferred by this letter, we hereby commit to work as an active partner alongside R20 and its partners in the design, financing and implementation of these projects.
