A broader mandate to address not only environmental issues but also sustainability was also approved in 2003.[11]​.

The organization promotes the following programs for local adoption and application of international conventions:

ICLEI also provides oversight of the Covenant of Mayors), a global coalition of city leaders founded to address global warming at the local level.[12]

ICLEI is a democratic organization with one board position for each member local government. This council meets every 3 years at an ICLEI World Congress and sets the priorities and direction of the organization through the adoption of a 6-year strategic plan. The most recent world congress was held in Montreal from June 19 to 22, 2018.[13]​ Members elect 21 representatives to the executive committee, which oversees the implementation of ICLEI's strategic plan and operations.[14]​[15]​.

This centre, formerly called the "International Training Centre", is the training and conference service unit of ICLEI. It is located in Bonn, where the world secretariat and the Climate Center are also located. The resilient city conferences "Resilience (ecology)") in 2011 and 2012 were also held in this town.[16]​.

Ecomobility is a term used to describe travel with integrated, socially inclusive and environmentally friendly means of transport, such as walking, cycling or public transport. By allowing organizations and citizens sustainable access to goods, services and information, ecomobility supports citizens' quality of life, increases transportation options and promotes social cohesion.

It is not a new mode of transport nor a collective word to indicate heterogeneous transport. Ecomobility indicates a new approach to mobility that highlights the importance of public transport and non-motorized transport and promotes an integrated use of all modes in the city. Green transportation options are environmentally sustainable, socially inclusive, and emit little or no greenhouse gases (the main drivers of global warming) compared to individual cars powered by fossil fuels. Ecomobility promotes the use of light electric vehicles, as long as their electricity comes from renewable sources. Incorporating ecomobility into the development of traffic policies and systems will benefit local governments by achieving international recognition for the city and its leadership.

ICLEI has an agenda to promote eco-mobility in cities called Ecommobile City Agenda (sustainable urban transportation). Execute the following 3 key projects:.

The Ecomobility Alliance was created in October 2011 in Changwon, South Korea. It is a transformation of the previous Global Alliance for Ecomobility, a non-governmental organization founded and launched in Bali on December 10, 2007, on the occasion of the Bali Conference 2007 (UNFCCC-COP-13).[17] ICLEI legally represents and houses the secretariat of the Alliance for Ecomobility. This secretariat is located in Bonn, Germany. The Alliance for Ecomobility is an international non-profit association that promotes ecomobility around the world, in order to reduce citizens' dependence on private fossil fuel vehicles. This alliance is led by a forward-thinking mayor.

Presidencies until 2017:.

The World Ecomobility Festival is a month-long experiment, undertaken by bold and forward-thinking mayors, to showcase a car-free lifestyle in a city neighborhood. The residents of this neighborhood will show the world that you can lead a normal life without depending on personal cars. Citizens will embrace improved walking, cycling and public transportation, and use light electric vehicles to replace trips in fossil fuel vehicles.

World ecomobility festivals until 2017:.

The World Ecomobility Congress provides new, enriching and visionary perspectives for sustainable urban mobility. The objective of these conferences is to facilitate broad international knowledge of ecomobility. Renowned transportation experts, transformative leaders, decision-makers, mayors and innovators from around the globe present some of the best case studies, and participants learn how to initiate and apply good while engaging in fruitful discussions on mobility for the future of sustainable cities.

World ecomobility congresses until 2017.

In addition to the aforementioned projects, the Ecomobile City Agenda also works in the following areas:.

Tea Party activists targeted ICLEI for its support of Agenda 21, a non-binding United Nations initiative that seeks to preserve lands and resources. Activists claimed that efforts by local governments to expand public transportation and preserve natural spaces were part of a UN conspiracy "to deny property rights and drive people to cities."[18]

Sustainable policies applied at the municipal level, such as bike lanes, incentives for cyclists, shared bicycles or public transport options, have been the target of this criticism. Notably, Dan Maes, Republican candidate for governor of Colorado in 2010, attacked these policies in Denver (the state capital) during his campaign.[19]​.

The United States branch (in English ICLEI USA) is a nonprofit organization legally classified as 501(3) "501(c)(3)") (c)(3), and is affiliated with the international organization of the same name.[20]​.
