As we enter the new year, the General Secretariat would like to warmly thank all member cities for their intense and generous participation in the Organization’s activities in 2025. The Quebec Roadmap and the Cordoba Path have reached a decisive stage that brings us closer to the New Urban Project.

In 2026, we will meet in Marrakech for the 18th OWHC World Congress. This event will mark the culmination of an unprecedented collaborative effort undertaken in 2022 and will open a new phase of cooperation for our members.

During this festive period, the entire team at the General Secretariat wishes you a peaceful, convivial, and sharing holiday season, as well as a 2026 filled with dialogue, cooperation, and shared ambition.

The General Secretariat of the OWHC

The OWHC offices will be closed from December 19 to January 2. We will be back on January 5.
