Vote for “Best Mayor of the World” 08-06-2006 City Mayors, the international project for good and strong local government,
has nominated 50 mayors to compete for the title “World Mayor 2006”. Mayors are
judged on their vision, their passion and their skills. You are invited to vote
for who you believe should be awarded the title World Mayor 2006.
The World Mayor competition, which is conducted on the internet, takes place
over two stages. The competition starts with the nomination stage. This stage
closed on 31 May 2006. Based on the input received during the nomination stage,
City Mayors has drawn up a short list of
50 finalists who will compete for the 2006 award. All finalists are asked to
submit a manifesto, describing their visions for their cities.
You may vote for one mayor from each of the world's regions - Africa, North
America, South America, Asia, Australasia and Europe. In addition, you are asked
to comment on your vote. The choice of the winner will be based on the number of
votes mayors receive and the persuasiveness and passion of supporting comments.
The award will be presented at the annual World Mayor event. The contest
seeks to raise the profile of mayors worldwide, as well as to honour those who
have served their communities well and who have made contributions to the
well-being of cities nationally and internationally. Last year’s event was won
by Athens Mayor Dora Bakoyannis.
