ICLEI is an international membership association of local governments working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and develop more sustainable communities. ICLEI USA is based in Boston with regional support staff located in 7 cities around the U.S.
Founded in 1990 by a group of local government representatives from around the globe, ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI) is the premier international local government membership association focused solely on climate protection and sustainability.
The mission of ICLEI is to build, serve, and drive a movement of local governments to advance deep reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and achieve tangible improvements in local sustainability. ICLEI has deep experience engaging and guiding all forms of local governments, including counties, cities, towns, and villages on taking significant action to quantify and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions while decreasing operational costs, improving economic stability, and enhancing overall community livability.
ICLEI guides its members through a Five-Milestone performance-based methodology for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing community sustainability, and promoting economic development through intelligent, region-appropriate energy conservation strategies. These milestones are supported by ICLEI’s dynamic emissions analysis, action planning, and implementation tools and resources.
