In the months prior to the 6th edition of the UCLG world congress, CIB members are drafting various activities directed at Local Government Associations (LGAs) at this important event. We would like to give you an update on the statutory meetings and suggested LGA activities. Thanks for informing us on interests of the leadership of your association, or your partner association(s). Also, we are interested to hear if your CEO and/or President/Board is planning to come to Durban.
