This dialogue brings together top urban leaders, experts, and decision-makers from across the Commonwealth — including Lucy Slack, Secretary General of the Commonwealth Local Government Forum — to confront the pressing challenges of climate change and rapid unplanned urbanisation.

Hosted by Wilton Park, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), and the Commonwealth Sustainable Cities Initiative (CSCI), the dialogue is centred around shaping a transformative coalition for sustainable urban development, especially in emerging and fast-developing urban centres.

Our team is championing  Belize City's and CLGF’s voices, ensuring that our local perspectives and needs are part of the global conversation on: Climate resilience, Sustainable infrastructure, Innovation in urban planning, Strategic collaboration with Commonwealth partners. 

This engagement directly aligns with Belize City Council’s mission to build a greener, smarter, more inclusive city — and opens doors to best practices that we can bring home to benefit our communities.

Together, we’re not just participating in global dialogue — we’re shaping the future of urban living for the people of Belize City.
