Our Members and team of experts work together through peer exchange, partnerships and capacity building to create systemic change for urban sustainability through our multi-faceted projects.
We manage over 50 projects and programmes, from inception and conceptualisation to implementation, and continue to engage with our cities and towns long after funded projects end.
We offer close to 40 technical and capacity building services and are dedicated to facilitating the right connections to strengthen action and drive change.
We co-develop projects and programmes with our cities and regions, from conceptualisation to implementation, and continue to engage with them long after funded projects end.
