The Technical Seminars are designed to bring together public institutions, NGOs, the private sector, experts and academics in a lively, participative multi-sector debate on critical issues in the planning and management of cities and regions.  They intend to provide useful, practical information to delegates that will supplement the material provided by keynote speakers and the papers presented at parallel sessions. 

The Technical Seminars are a key part of the Congress on Low Carbon Cities.  A number of specific topics especially relevant to the theme will be covered in two parallel seminars, one centred on planning and technologies for energy efficiency and a second illustrating a series of initiatives towards low carbon undertaken by cities and regions.

The Seminars are organised around 15-minute presentations. In addition, a substantial amount of time will be allocated for questions and discussion, and it is hoped that key points will emerge that delegates may be able to apply, or adapt to their situations back at home.
