What does ICLEI mean?
- ICLEI
- ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability (or simply ICLEI) is an international organization of local governments and national and regional local government organizations that have made a commitment to sustainable development. Founded in 1990 as the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives, the international association was established when more than 200 local governments from 43 countries convened at its inaugural conference, the World Congress of Local Governments for a Sustainable Future, at the United Nations in New York in September 1990.Today, more than 1,750 cities, towns, counties, and their associations in 84 countries comprise ICLEI's growing network. ICLEI works with these and hundreds of other local governments through international performance-based, results-oriented campaigns and programs. It provides technical consulting, training, and information services to build capacity, share knowledge, and support local government in the implementation of sustainable development at the local level. ICLEI's basic premise is that locally designed initiatives can provide an effective and cost-efficient way to achieve local, national, and global sustainability objectives.
