OUR STORY

Pioneering the Urban Renaissance

The International Awards for Liveable Communities (LivCom) was launched internationally to champion international best practices in local environmental management and the sustainable development of cities. Over the decades, it has grown into the world’s most prestigious platform endorsed by UN bodies.

Today, the Urban Sustainability Forum (USF) runs in tandem with the LivCom Finals. What began as an awards ceremony has evolved into a global economic and technological engine. The USF bridges the critical gap between civic ambition and enterprise capability, matching the mayors who govern the cities of tomorrow with the tech visionaries building them.

  • Supported by UNEP and UNESCO guidelines.
  • The only international competition focusing on quality of life.
  • Over $2B in enterprise-municipal projects initiated since 2010.
