🇱🇺盧森堡搶先推出歐洲第一支永續公債！

#綠色債券 #永續發展 #他山之石

盧森堡在今年九月成為歐洲第一個推出「永續債券框架」(Sustainability Bond Framework)的國家，隨後發行第一個超過 15 億歐元的 「永續公債」，鎖定符合友善環境的綠色投資，以及具社會性效益的方案。

在「永續債券框架」下所發行的債券，可確保資金限定用於以下類別：

🌳綠建築(construction of green buildings);
🔥能源轉型(energy transition);
🚲低碳運輸(development of low-carbon transport);
♻環境保護(environmental protection);
💧水資源及汙水管理(water and wastewater management);
🌦氣候融資及研發(climate financing and R&D);
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦進行基本服務－健康、教育及社會包容(access to essential services - health, education and social inclusion);
🏘可負擔的住宅(affordable housing)
👩‍💻👨‍🏭創造就業機會(job creation)

永續公債的收益將平均分配至綠色及社會方案，並排除核能發電、化石燃料生產及化石燃料發電、武器和軍需品生產等 8 種產業。

種種創新積極的作為凸顯盧森堡欲成為綠色金融的領頭羊，相關做法也值得我們借鏡！

疫情加上颶風！ 萬那杜

VANUATU CONFRONTED WITH NIGHTMARE SCENARIO AS COVID-19 PREPARATIONS DERAILED BY SEVERE CYCLONE

“In Vanuatu, we have to build our community’s resilience and our capability to recover very quickly as we’ve learned from the past two years that we can be responding to more than one disaster at the same time,” said Abraham Nasak, Director of Vanuatu’s National Disaster Management Agency when he was at the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction in Geneva last year.
But even he probably never envisaged the nightmare scenario of having to prepare for a category 5 cyclone at the same time as trying to stop the arrival in his country of the COVID19 pandemic.
Extreme weather events and other natural hazards don’t stop happening because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Category 5 Cyclone Harold hitting Vanuatu and threatening other islands in the south Pacific including Tonga and Fiji, is the first major instance of this happening and the repercussions will be considerable from several aspects.
First though it is important to say that Vanuatu and other Pacific Islands which will face the wrath of Cyclone Harold have very well-developed disaster management systems which will keep mortality from such events low.
Unfortunately, the economic losses and damage to critical infrastructure are likely to be considerable with knock-on effects for their overall ability to fight the COVID-19 pandemic including damage to health facilities, loss of housing, damage to water and sanitation and other important infrastructure, the scale of which has not yet been determined.
No cases have been reported so far of COVID-19 on Vanuatu but the rules on social distancing have had to be suspended as thousands of people moved to safe shelters and evacuation centers to escape the storm.
Reports coming in from various sources speak of significant damage in multiple small communities throughout several islands. In one Pentecost Island village of 231 people, all its 55 homes were damaged or destroyed but no casualties hve been reported.
Vanuatu ranks as one of the most disaster affected countries in the world. This is the second time in five years that it has been hit by a Category 5 cyclone.
In March 2015, Cyclone Pam struck the island causing 14 deaths and damage and losses estimated at $450 million, approximately 64% of the country’s GDP.
The storm also pushed back Vanuatu's expected graduation from LDC status by three years. In December 2017, the UN Committee on Development Policy recommended that Vanuatu's smooth transition process should seek to reduce the country’s vulnerability to disasters ahead of Vanuatu's planned LDC graduation on 4 December 2020. Depending on the economic losses inflicted by this latest disaster, that date could come under further review.

在城市外交，除了官式的互訪，市長更著重在政策上的學習跟互動，

市長非常大方的授權，讓我與我們的實習生Williams，開始啟動台北澳洲公宅的政策交流。

當然，除了跑去澳洲🦘，我們這次選擇透過科技來克服地理跟時間障礙，與澳洲公宅管理非營利組織“Link Housing”視訊會議。

Link Housing是澳洲的新南威爾士州的一個公宅管理非營利組織。新南威爾士政府直接與Link Housing契約，讓Link Housing直接管理3000+公共住宅。

因此Link Housing負責管理政府公宅：政府所興建公宅，由Link Housing協助後續管理。這有幾個好處

降低成本：無論是興建或後續管理，對政府都是沉重負擔，但由民間來執行，政府做政策鼓勵及補助，能夠降低政府的成本。而民間若管理良好，也能使社會住宅更加有效的被推行，及讓閒置房產做更有效率的運用。

良好投資：許多成本屬於隱性，例如社會問題、醫療支出等，都屬於城市的額外支出。但提供高品質的社會住宅，有助於在長遠的未來降低這些隱性支出，對城市而言屬於良好的投資。

利潤重新投入蓋房：因為是ＮＰＯ，也是政府委託具有公益性質，若有多餘補助或盈餘，則可投入興建新的房產，再將其賣掉作為新的社會住宅。

市長說，我們常常認為，公宅只是興建就好，但是維護、永續經營，社區互動，才是後續要處理的問題。

我們非常感謝澳洲代表Gary Cowan，在會議中針對澳洲的一些政治概況，還有公宅政策，適時的添加意見，並且給予說明。非常傑出的外交官，這樣的城市互動，能夠增加公共政策的品質，增強治理的能力，這是我們的目標與願景。

我們在台北市，就是盡台北市的責任，與美日澳等國，進行雙向交流。交流的意義是把好的政策參考，但是模型必須考慮台灣自己國情去修正。交流的意義是避免犯同樣的政策錯誤，有些已開發國家面臨的問題，他們已經面對過，我們不必重新發明輪子。

親什麼國家的意義，是建立實質合作，可以是教育政策（特拉維夫與台北開始的教育合作案）可以是社會政策（公宅）可以是交通政策（無人車），可以是觀光（宮城縣、富山），可以是防災（台北與東京）

我知道現在大家都在關注誰說了什麼，
但是我懇請各位多關注，做了什麼，怎麼做。

Under the Mayor’s leadership, Taipei City Government has set ambitious targets to bring our public housing program up to international standards. To do this the Mayor has insisted that we learn from international experts.

Today’s #InternationalExchange with #Australian social housing provider LinkHousingLtd was a great opportunity for the Taipei City Government to learn about NSW public housing policies and what we can do to make our #PublicHousing even more efficient and successful.

The exchange was attended by #AusOfficeTaipei representative Gary Cowan.

The current NSW social housing system, which Link Housing is a part of, allows the gov to save money on professional, high quality property management. This saved money can be invested in building even more social housing.

The exchange was initiated by our International Research Intern, Harrison Williams. As part of the Taipei City Government’s International Intern Program, interns are encouraged to promote international exchanges. The exchange with Link Housing was another example of how the Taipei City Government is strengthening its international profile through these programs.

The Mayor was impressed by the exchange, expressed his desire to send a team to Sydney he to study the merits of the NSW public housing system.
