Governance

As a membership association, ICLEI receives its mandate from its Member local governments and municipal organisations. Not only in terms of project implementation, but also in terms of governing the organisation, ICLEI works closely with its members. On a regional level ICLEI Europe does this through the European Regional Executive Committee (REXCom), who are representing ICLEI’s Members in Europe. On a global level, ICLEI works with its Global Executive Committee (GEXCom) and the Council.

Global Governance

Our global governance structure is based on nine Regional Executive Committees (REXComs), each elected by the ICLEI Members of the specific region. All REXComs together form the ICLEI Council, which represents ICLEI’s global Membership by way of representative democracy. From within each REXCom one representative is nominated to the ICLEI Global Executive Committee (GEXCom), which is the overall governing body representing the entire ICLEI Membership and oversees the implementation of the Strategic Plan.
