Partners and Supporters
One of the main principles of the Millennium Cities Initiative is to work with existing institutions, research and extension organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) where they are effective and equitable. Work at the city level must be consistent with the work of the higher-level government institutions (Ministries of Health, Education, Energy, Commerce and Industry for example) which will be partners in developing plans and strategies for implementation.
