Enhancing the Role of City Diplomacy

Cities are stepping up on the global scene.

Until recent years, discourse and actions on global problems were the domain of national governments and global institutions but the absence of a local perspective was a gap too glaring to ignore.

City Diplomacy is about how cities engage with processes, institutions and stakeholders on a global stage. To put it simply, it’s about understanding the role of cities and how their international engagement provides local solutions to global problems.

Birmingham is committed to leading the way in this role.
