As a leading member of the Pacific Urban Partnership, CLGF is delighted to announce that the next Pacific Urban Forum - #PUF7 - will take place in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, from 21-23 October 2025.

Regional approach

This will be an excellent opportunity for local government leaders, ministers of Local government and other local government stakeholders to come together with a cross section of government ministers, regional bodies, civil society organisations, thematic experts, and development partners to exchange learning, experiences and good practice, and to highlight the importance of a regional approach to ensuring sustainable urban development in the Pacific.

In addition to high-level plenary sessions, there will be a number of side events, providing space for more detailed engagement and this will be enhanced with study visits organised by the host government.

The portal is now open for participants to register, and we look forward to meeting as many CLGF members as possible in Port Moresby.  

Register now and don't miss out on this celebration of the Blue Urban Pacific, hosted as part of Papua New Guinea's 50th anniversary of Independence.
