From Boise to Bratislava, city halls everywhere want to cut through today’s fractured information landscape to reach residents, form durable coalitions for change, and build trust in gov—from the bottom up.   #CityLabCDMX kicks off today with the Mayors Innovation Studio where 100+ mayors will convene with cross-sectoral experts and peers on how to innovate public engagement to do just that: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Hard to keep up with all the innovation coming out of Mexico City—like Llave (a digital key to public services), the 250+ Pilares centers, and the **stunning** Utopias. We’ll learn from them all at CityLab CDMX.
In 2024, half the world will be living in places holding elections. Most of those people live in cities—where the consequences will play out. As they do, mayors worldwide are drawing inspiration from the urban policies that catapulted former @GobCDMX mayor @Claudiashein to the presidency. Against this backdrop, #CityLabCDMX will convene 500+ mayors, policymakers, & innovators in Mexico City this October to explore the solutions shaped by city halls that are poised to reshape nations.

Adults often paternalize the young. Governments often paternalize residents. That's why I'm so excited about the new #Youth #ClimateAction Fund ➡️➡️to help city leaders recognize, nurture and support youth climate action in cities everywhere🌎🌲♻️🚵🏼‍♂️ bloombergcities.jhu.edu/news…
