| Activities | In order to implement these objectives, the Council breaks down its method of action as follows:
-Showcasing local leaders, climate and sustainability actions that contribute to policy change at local and global levels; -Supporting its members to enhance their climate and sustainability leadership capacities; -Addressing global climate and sustainability policy makers as a global body of leaders from diverse local governments; -Politically steering the development and implementation of mechanisms that support local climate and sustainability action.
