Bloomberg Philanthropies and Harvard host City Leadership Initiative

The City Leadership Initiative, an annual program organized by Bloomberg Philanthropies in collaboration with Harvard University, brings together leaders from 46 cities across 15 countries to address urban governance challenges.

Participants focus on transforming large public municipal organizations into dynamic, solution-oriented agents of change. Key strategies identified for successful future-oriented metropolises include a commitment to innovation through risk-taking and experimentation, the systematic use of data and evidence for decision-making, and fostering active citizen engagement.
