The ICLEI Story
Why this Website?
ICLEI's organizational website
shows the moment.
We believe that it's important to have a place where the origin, the philosophy, the development, the driving forces and the historical achievements of this unique organization are documented.

ICLEI - that's local and regional governments for sustainability, and also a global community of dedicated current and former staff, partner institutions, and friends of the organization - a community which constitutes a movement that has expanded rapidly over time.
Leadership
Who were the leaders and drivers
