ICLEI connects local and regional governments with solution providers; pilots technological, organisational and financial innovations; and facilitates knowledge exchange through a range of conferences and workshops. Part of these are conference series, taking place regularly targeting European local governments and relevant stakeholders.
Every three years, ICLEI holds its World Congress to showcase how local and regional governments across our network are advancing sustainable urban development worldwide. The ICLEI World Congress connects them with their peers and strategic partners, and provides a platform for discussions that will inform and enhance their work.
