Sustainable development - 11.09.2005

ICLEI is 15 years old!
ICLEI, the local governments network for sustainability celebrates its 15th anniversary.
 
ICLEI was founded at the end of the world congress of local governments for a sustainable future", in New York, on 8 september 1990. The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the International Union of Local Authorities (IULA) were among its founding fathers.
 
The main idea was to create an informal network of partners in towns and municipalities across the world, steeming from the belief that sustainable development must grow from its base, i.e. from the local level.
 
Fifteen years later, ICLEI has 470 members in some 75 countries, a staff of 135 working from its headquarters in Toronto or in its 11 others offices, and an annual budget of just under €1 million.
