Natural Capital Accounting (NCA) is being applied to Bhutan's protected areas to highlight their ecological and economic value. The approach supports Bhutan's Gross National Happiness vision by integrating natural assets into national planning. It also creates opportunities for accessing global environmental finance and supports long-term conservation efforts.

Bangkok is bringing together city leaders, communities, and partners to shape a more sustainable and climate-resilient future. A multi-stakeholder platform is helping align efforts across key areas like energy, adaptation, air quality, and waste. This collaboration sets the stage for pilot sustainability projects launching in 2025.

Khulna is tackling rising water demand and salinity through a comprehensive plan supported by ADB and CDIA. Solutions combine surface and groundwater use, smart infrastructure, and nature-based approaches. The project also strengthens KWASA's capacity to manage long-term water security.

South Asian countries are joining forces to tackle transboundary air pollution through shared solutions and coordinated action. Efforts include clean transport, improved monitoring, and region-wide policy alignment. The initiative promotes cross-border cooperation to build healthier, climate-resilient communities.

Climate finance is reaching communities on the frontlines of climate change through national climate funds with dedicated community-level windows. By making funding more accessible, the initiative supports locally led adaptation aligned with national priorities. It strengthens the voice and agency of marginalised groups in building long-term climate resilience.
