Kirkuk, Iraq · 850,000 people · Industrial City

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

• The ancient Kirkuk Citadel overlooks the modern city and contains millennia of layered settlement.

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 Kirkuk 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.
