The fourth edition of the citiES 2030 Summer Course will be held from July 14 to 16, 2025, as part of the Summer Course Program of the Menéndez Pelayo International University in Santander.

The summer course has established itself as the annual meeting that, since 2022, has been the backbone of the ecosystem of actors linked to the Mission of Cities in Spain. It is a key opportunity for strategic debate, knowledge exchange and networking between the participating Spanish cities, the different administrations (European, national, regional, local), the private sector, the third sector, academia and citizens.

In previous editions we have addressed key aspects to address barriers to urban decarbonization, strengthening multi-stakeholder collaboration and working on building roadmaps and investment plans within the framework of the Climate Agreements.
