The resilience of any society rests on the strength of its social fabric & on the capacity to adapt while still delivering inclusion, dignity, & agency. This is where local delivery becomes a stabilizing force. A shared vision by local governments and the UN. 🙏 @AminaJMohammed
Can global goals succeed when "empowerment and resourcing have not kept pace with responsibility?"
@UCLG_Saiz & @AminaJMohammed argue that local delivery must anchor the multilateral system.

When rights remain out of reach, when services are weakened, when care is invisible and when inequalities are reproduced, local democracy must deliver. #UCLGMeets in Tangier to rebuild global governance from the territories #UCLGCongress

The best ideas are already out there. Cities are where the solutions are.
From around the world, cities submitted their most ambitious ideas for inclusive, resilient and sustainable development. On 25 June 2026, ahead of the Metropolis General Assembly, we announce 15 shortlisted and 30 exemplary initiatives at the UCLG World Congress in Tangier, Morocco.
Since 2012, the Guangzhou Award has been the space where cities come to share what works. Because when one city solves a problem, every city learns.
Watch this space for this year's shortlisted initiatives, and explore what previous editions have produced at zurl.co/BpZmi.

"Global goals succeed or fail where people live. If multilateralism is to regain trust, it must deliver locally, through the govts closest to people’s daily lives. The future of global cooperation must be built from territories".SG @UCLG_Saiz & @UN DSG @AminaJMohammed for @devex

What does it mean to be a #HumanRightsCities? 🤔
"It means putting care at the heart of service delivery. Citizens are not treated like clients—they are the right-holders of the city."
