UCLG & Global Taskforce

There is no doubt about it: major cities are one of the driving forces of the world we live in today. A good reason to attend Metropolis World Congress in Montréal from 19 to 22 June, the place to be, exchange and learn from decision-makers from major cities around the world.

With the theme “Global Challenges: Major Cities in Action”, hundreds of local leaders and makers (elected representatives, experts, urban planners, business leaders, academics…) will debate the new challenges facing major cities on all continents: smart cities, sustainable development, inclusion, mobility, economic development, collaborative economy and more. For more details, have a look at the full programme.

Many mayors will be taking part in this high-profile event. Among others, mayor of Montréal Denis Coderre, mayor of Berlin Michael Müller, mayor of Rabat Mohamed Sadiki, mayor of Brussels Yvan Mayeur and mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo.

To debate key issues and share good practices with major local leaders from across the globe, register for the conference today.
