Title
Best Practices & Local Leadership Programme
Description
The Best Practices and Local Leadership Programme (BLP) is a global network of training and leadership development organisations dedicated to improving living conditions of people. It does so by identifying, analysing and disseminating lessons learned from actions that have made a lasting contribution to quality of life and the sustainability of our cities and communities.
With the generous support of the Municipality of Dubai, U.A.E., the BLP is able to raise awareness of some of the most pressing social, economic and environmental challenges of an urbanizing world. The Award also calls attention to the potential solutions to these same challenges. Every two years, 10 Best Practices are recognized and awarded with a US$ 30,000 prize, a trophy and a commemorative certificate. The next Dubai International Award will be presented in the year 2006.
The Dubai International Award plays a crucial incentive role in the identification of Best Practices from around the world. From the 1996, 1998, 2000, 2002 and 2004 Awards, over 2,150 Good and Best Practices from 140 countries have been compiled on the Habitat Best Practices database. The 2004 edition of this database, including the 2004 Dubai International Award recipients, is currently available on the Internet at: http://www.bestpractices.org
