The UCLG WORLD SUMMIT- Final Report Now Available

The 2nd World Summit of UCLG was celebrated from 1-4 October 2013 in Rabat, Morocco, in the centenary year of the international municipal movement. The Moroccan capital “supports all initiatives that aim to promote the principles of decentralization and local democratic development” (extract from the speech by the King of Morocco, read at the Summit opening by Mr Fathallah Oualalou, Mayor of Rabat).

Over 3,000 participants from 125 countries from all regions of the world took part in the event. Representatives of local and regional authorities, national governments, multi-lateral agencies, the private sector, development partners and civil society came together to connect, debate and exchange experiences. The 4 days were a unique opportunity to discuss the most vital issues for the agenda of sub-national authorities and their partners for the coming decades.
