Metropolitan Capacity Assessment Methodology

Tools

The Metropolitan Capacity Assessment Methodology (MetroCAM) has been developed by GIZ in cooperation with UN-Habitat as a guiding framework for implementing sustainable development agendas at the metropolitan scale. With this modular toolbox, urban stakeholders are able to assess existing capacity, future needs, and potential trigger points and finally identify options for change to improve existing services and conditions. By tackling a particular metropolitan challenge (e.g. mobility, resilience), the MetroCAM provides instruments and incentives for municipalities to cooperate beyond administrative boundaries, foster dialogue and build consensus among various stakeholders.
