Local and Regional Governments Breaking Through As One – Official Guide

The World Summit of Local and Regional Leaders and World Congress is the largest gathering of mayors, presidents of associations, local elected officers, and practitioners from around the world. Convened by United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG) and for the first-time hybrid, it also gathers critical partners and the international system driving forward the decision making of city and community life.

In 2022, we will embrace new possibilities to open up to audiences beyond the city of Daejeon, to be all together in every way we can while bringing in the Korean perspective on key issues of the international agenda.
