THE City Mayors Foundation has launched this year’s World Mayor Project and is seeking nominations for the 2012 World Mayor Prize. The Prize is awarded every two years to a mayor who has been bold and innovative at community level but has also developed a vision for urban living that is relevant to towns and cities across the world.
Previous winners are Marcelo Ebrard (Mexico City), Helen Zille (Cape Town), John So (Melbourne), Dora Bakoyannis (Athens) and Edi Rama (Tirana).
Any mayor wishing to be considered for this year’s World Mayor Prize will also be asked to sign up to the mayoral Code of Ethics. The Code has been instituted for mayors, who wish to perform their duties beyond all reproach.
Please use the online form to nominate a mayor whose achievements you believe should be recognised nationally and internationally.
