How can we use the future to build our present? 

At the Metropolis World Congress, mayors will have the chance to get ahead of the curve and connect the dots between science, urban innovation and foresight to shape together cities that care.

The power of nature in our metropolises, the transformative potential of creating places that look after us and the revolutionary capacities of evidence-based policy-making. Unfold these topics with us and set a new agenda that fosters the well-being of people, places and the planet!

What’s more, Metropolis will renew in Brussels its statutes, statutory bodies and strategic action plan to bring the organisation to the next level and respond to the changing needs of metropolises.
