Dear colleagues, members and partners of the Committee,
As you might be already informed, from the 5th to the 6th December, the annual meeting of the UCLG World Council will be held in the city of Dakar (Senegal), in the framework of the 6th Africities Summit. You may find the related information in the following link: UCLG World Council 2012.
From the Presidency of the three Committees, we believe that the experience carried out last year to organize a joint meeting between the members of the three Committees was very interesting, and therefore we have decided to continue in this line and organize again a joint meeting this year, the main objective being to continue the collaboration between the three Committees.
The meeting will be held on December 5th from 12:00 to 13:15 in the Hotel Almadies
Please, use the following links to access the agenda of the meeting:
From the Committee on Digital and Knowledge-based Cities, we will take this opportunity to present the “Smart Cities Study: International Study on the situation of ICT, Innovation and Knowledge management in the cities” on which we have been working during 2012.
