The record Curitiba keeps on the Board of Mayors is still unwritten. Take office and write its opening chapter.

The city

Landmark: Botanical Garden & Tube Bus Stops.

• The IPPUC implements high efficiency tube boarding glass stations for rapid transport, decreasing passenger boarding delay by 70% during peak transit hours.
• The Municipal Social Assistance Department manages the "Câmbio Verde" program, cofunded by state and civil sustainability grants, allowing low income citizens to exchange sorted recyclables for fresh regional produce.

How a term works

Take office and each day brings a live situation from the city's services: a decision to make and a result that is measured. A term is judged on approval, infrastructure, environment and innovation, within the city's budget, and every term adds to the record Curitiba keeps on the Board of Mayors. Mayors message and confer with one another, form councils, trade with neighbouring cities and send aid where it is needed. Cities rise together.
