ICLEI Europe celebrates 25 years in Freiburg with Sustainability Days event

The City of Freiburg (Germany), ICLEI and the One World Forum will organise a panel discussion titled ‘Global goals, local strategies – why do cities need the SDGs?’ on 19 May as part of Freiburg’s Sustainability Days.

Welcoming several cities from the surrounding regions (both German and international), the event will also celebrate the 25th anniversary of ICLEI Europe in Freiburg.

With a programme of more than 60 actions performed within 96 hours in 12 locations, the aim of the Sustainability Days campaign is to make sustainability actions visible and tangible to local residents. The event will showcase a cross-section of the city’s sustainable development work and its council’s actions in the field.

During the campaign there will be a wide range of activities on the theme of sustainability throughout the city, run by local organisations.
