Local Governments for Sustainability Colombia

ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability is a global network of more than 2,500 local and regional governments committed to sustainable urban development. Active in more than 130 countries, we influence sustainability policies and drive local action for low-carbon, nature-based, equitable, resilient and circular development.

 Our Network and team of experts work together offering access to knowledge, partnerships and training to generate systemic changes in favor of urban sustainability.

 ICLEI South America connects its more than 100 member governments in eight countries to this global movement. In 2018, to continue building strong supportive relationships with its members, the regional secretariat opened two National Coordination offices, in Colombia and Argentina respectively. The office in Colombia is hosted by the Metropolitan Area of Valle de Aburrá (AMVA); and in Argentina, it is headquartered in the city of Rosario. Over these years, ICLEI South America stood out in the development and execution of projects in the themes of: Climate and Low Carbon Development, Resilience, Solid Waste, Sustainable Public Procurement, Urban Biodiversity, among others.
