The governance of Sustainable City by France: a balanced, partnership-based organisation
The governance of Sustainable City by France brings together the public sector (State and local authorities) and the private sector (companies and experts), in order to combine approaches through the pooling of resources, the communal expression of needs, and the shared formulation of solutions that will allow us to make cities more sustainable.
These actors are grouped into four bodies: local authorities, State, private companies, experts. Each of these bodies has an equal weight in governance, regardless of the number of its members.
