Abstract
The National Dialogue on the Urban Nexus in Thailand took place on 19 March 2015, in Bangkok, Thailand, and was organised by ESCAP in partnership with GIZ. The National Dialogue was organized in the context of the project "Integrated Resource Management in Asian Cities: The Urban Nexus", financed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by GIZ in partnership with ESCAP, ICLEI and the Nexus partner cities, Chiang Mai and Nakhon Ratchasima being the two partner cities in Thailand.
The meeting emphasized a number of barriers hampering the adoption of a nexus approach at city level, including: dependency of local governments on budgetary allocations from the central government; long time-frame to access funds; limited capacity of local governments to raise their own revenues; inability of local governments to access private financing; information asymmetries between different levels of government; and poor coordination between line ministries and departments. The meeting called for the need to strengthen institutional capacities of local governments and increase their ability to raise local revenues and to access different sources of financing.
