1. Give participants handouts with information about the sample city. Ask them to imagine they were invited to speak at the International Cities Conference, during the sustainable development panel. They are expected to make a 3-minute oral presentation about their city’s successful changes in the last few years. 2. Tell the participants to use the SDGs as a framework to talk about the city’s success story. They should refer to minimum 2 SDGs. if they feel short in time. 3. Ask them to give the city a name and encourage them to come up with additional information about the city, apart from what they are given in the handouts. They can think of targets (using the app) and indicators related to the targets of the SDGs. 4. Give out envelopes and 10 paper tokens. Ask participants to write down the name of their city on the envelope and explain that they will use the paper tokens afterwards to vote for the presentations they like (by putting the tokens in the envelope with the name of the city). 5. Give the participants 15 minutes to prepare the presentation. Encourage them to add additional information and use the Internet to find more details etc.
