Report by Mayors for Peace Secretariat

Aiming to inform new members about our initiatives and strengthen ties with member cities, on June 20, 2024, the Mayors for Peace Secretariat hosted an online meeting via Zoom. The meeting was attended by nine representatives from newly joined members worldwide, including three mayors from Germany, our executive advisor, and three coordinators from our Lead Cities. This event marked the launch of our new initiative, and we were delighted to connect with these new municipalities and their representatives.

The program included:
➢ Overview of Mayors for Peace and Its Initiatives by Secretary-General
➢ Introduction of the European Chapter of Mayors for Peace
➢ Welcome Message from Our Executive Advisor
➢ Greetings from Participating Mayors
➢ Commemorative Photo

In addition to this meeting, we held a separate online session with two new member cities that joined our network in June 2024. Mayors, Deputy Mayors, and a technician from Spain and Portugal attended. We were delighted to welcome them and engage in discussions about peace initiatives during the meeting.

Thank you for participating in the meetings and your municipality’s commitment to peace. We truly look forward to collaborating with you in the future!
