Who is Living Cities Earth
Cities are where the world’s biggest challenges show up first, and where new ways of living, leading, and working take root. But many city leaders are stuck managing day to day crises with tools that weren’t designed to deal with today’s complexity.
The Global Mayors Academy offers a space to step back, explore new solutions, discover what works, and move forward with greater clarity, capacity, and support. We know Leader are already under daily pressure and are time poor so we make sure we’re helping them reduce their workload not add to it, this is leading differently, with more impact and less burnout.

"We want to bring people together, moderate and motivate. In the end, it's about self-realization, about implementing your ideas and making a difference"

Vision & Mission of LCE
• Transcontextual learning: We connect leaders across sectors, cultures, and continents to see patterns and possibilities others miss.
• Practice-based tools: Every tool is field-tested, not theory-bound. Leaders learn by doing, applying what they learn in real time.
• Inner and outer development: We support not just strategic planning, but the personal growth and emotional resilience that real change demands.
• A global peer network: Participants join a trusted group of peers working at the same level — building confidence, accountability, and collaboration that lasts beyond the programme.
