LRGs are often better positioned than national governments to tackle localized climate challenges through context-specific collaboration. This chapter examines the growing importance of LRGs in transboundary climate governance, emphasizing their ability to innovate, involve communities, and carry out adaptive solutions. It investigates mechanisms like cross-border networks, inter-municipal forums, joint environmental initiatives, and digital platforms that facilitate collaboration among subnational actors across borders. Through the examination of global case studies and policy scrutiny, this chapter pinpoints essential obstacles-like financial shortfalls and legal constraints-and proposes tactical policy suggestions, such as bolstering legal acknowledgment, establishing regional climate funds, and fostering knowledge sharing. 2026, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
