Jakarta, 19 September 2024. The I-SIM for Cities judging is a continuation of the I-SIM for Cities 2024 activity, namely a rating & awarding scheme initiative program to improve the integration and collaboration of multi-stakeholders of the Indonesian SDGs ecosystem at the city level throughout Indonesia. Before conducting the judging, the top 10 cities with the highest scoring values were first selected. These cities are Palembang, Kediri, Semarang, Medan, Tangerang, Sawahlunto, Depok, Surabaya, Palu, and Tebing Tinggi.
The judging session was conducted by a panel of judges from various circles such as academics, government, professionals, and communication media. The judging session resulted in 3 winners of the I-SIM for Cities 2024.
Furthermore, the winners of the I-SIM for Cities 2024 will attend the SDGs Annual Conference (SAC) of the Ministry of PPN/Bappenas 2024 as the 3 best winners in the City Government category. This ranking is expected to be a motivation for local governments to be more active in carrying out sustainable development in their respective regions.
