2019 Urban 20 Mayors Summit

Urban 20 (U20) is an initiative developed in 2017 under the leadership of the Mayor of Buenos Aires and Mayor of Paris, and convened by the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group (C40) in collaboration with United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG). U20 seeks to develop a joint position and collective messages to inform and enrich the discussions of national leaders at the G20 Summit through unique urban perspectives.

In 2019, as Japan will host the G20 Summit, Tokyo will host the second U20 Mayors Summit. The summit takes place one month ahead of the G20 Osaka Summit. This will allow invited Mayors to discuss and approve a communiqué which will be formally presented to the G20.

Themes of Mayoral Sessions:

  • Climate Action
  • Circular Economy
  • Social Inclusion and Integration
  • Sustainable Economic Growth
  • Gender Equality
