The third annual conference for the Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities Mission. The European Commission and NetZeroCities invites Mission City mayors and practitioners, representatives of national and regional authorities, and others to connect and engage on Mission-critical concepts and ideas.  

The 2024 edition, ‘Empowering Cities – the Climate Neutral and Smart Cities Mission in Action’,  will be held in València -MedCities member city- on 25-26 June 2024. This invitation-only event is organised by the European Commission and the Mission Platform, and will bring together political representatives and practitioners from the 112 Mission Cities to celebrate the Mission’s progress, share valuable insights and experiences, and inspiration. 

This 2024 edition will be held in the framework of the València Cities Climate Week, as part of the Valencia EU Green Capital 2024. The Valencia Cities Climate Week encompasses several key events alongside the Cities Mission Conference, in particular the European Urban Resilience Forum 2024 (EURESFO) and Energy Cities’ Annual Forum. This is a unique opportunity to create synergies and promote urban sustainability, as well as to find common solutions to achieve climate neutrality and resilience.

Held on the 25 and 26 June, the two-day event will provide an integral space for knowledge sharing, capacity buidling, and face-to-face collaboration towards a climate neutral future. Workshops and policy sessions will address key challenges as well as the practical aspects and collaborative strategies for the effective implementation of Climate City Contracts. Opportunities for city leaders, the importance of multi-level governance and national platforms as well as connecting Missions, will be at the centre of the event. With a particular focus on the transformative journey towards climate neutrality undertaken by cities, the Conference will be a significant opportunity for the Mission to celebrate progress, join forces, and share inspiration.

Date and place
25-26 June – València
