Dear members of the World Council,
As you know, the fourth UCLG Culture Summit will take place on 9-11 September 2021 in Izmir, Turkey.
Registrations are now open until 31 August 2021.
Under the title “Culture: Shaping the Future”, the fourth UCLG Culture Summit is a unique global event. Mayors and local leaders, academics, activists, civil society organizations, cultural networks and key stakeholders involved in the global debate on culture and development will gather in Izmir to discuss the place of cultural policies in sustainable development. The Summit will send strong messages on the role of culture in development, and its programme will emphasize that culture is an integral part of sustainable cities and communities. The Summit promotes the sharing of experiences, innovations and policies from cities and territories across the world. The Summit is part of UCLG’s Pact for the Future process and will adopt in this context the Declaration of Izmir: "Culture shapes the Future of Humanity".
We invite you to register to participate virtually to the Summit on next 9-11 September 2021. Should you want to participate physically to the Summit, we invite you to indicate it through the online registration form and to notify us by email at culturesummit@uclg.org.
