From May 27 to 29, 2026, OGR Torino will be the main location for Cities Mission Conference 2026, the fifth edition of the conference organized by the European Commission, NetZeroCities and the City of Turin, in partnership with OGR Torino and Cottino Social Impact Campus.

Three days of discussions, exchange and collaboration among cities, institutions and European partners engaged in the climate transition, with a focus on four key themes: mobilizing climate finance, strengthening multi level partnerships, accelerating implementation and improving impact measurement within the framework of the Mission.

Taking place at a pivotal moment between the first tangible results and the acceleration phase towards 2030, the conference aims to create the enabling conditions for systemic change in European cities. Its main objective is to foster peer learning and collaboration through the exchange of best practices, dedicated sessions focused on overcoming barriers, matchmaking activities and interactive formats.
