The Global Covenant of Mayors is a global alliance of over 12,500 cities and local governments working together to address climate change and promote sustainable energy.
The Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy (GCoM) is the largest global alliance for city climate leadership, comprising over 12,500 cities and local governments across six continents and 144 countries. The network aims to accelerate ambitious, measurable, and planned climate and energy action in cities, focusing on three pillars: mitigation, adaptation, and increased access to secure, affordable, and sustainable energy. The GCoM supports cities in developing and implementing climate action plans, reporting progress, and sharing best practices to achieve a low-emission and climate-resilient future. The goal of the network is to help cities meet and exceed the Paris Agreement targets, ensuring a better quality of life and economic development for their communities.
