COMMUNICATIONS AND KNOWLEDGE

Our Communications & Knowledge activities reinforce our core programs by raising awareness of city leadership and increasing understanding of urban migration and displacement among global audiences. We assist mayors with advocacy campaigns, promotional events, and media engagements, as well as knowledge products and research partnerships.

Between 2020 and 2022, we organized or attended 105 events to promote MMC mayors and senior leadership; delivered more than 30 campaigns to elevate key messages to global audiences; developed 40 media products, such as press releases, blogs, and other promotional materials; reached more than 2 million people on social media; and issued more than 25 knowledge products, such as reports, papers, and briefs. As a result, the MMC’s work and impact was featured in more than 330 media placements and 40 external research pieces. Overall, 89% of our city partners reported improved visibility as key actors on global migration and displacement issues.
