World Winter Cities Association for Mayors

In 2004 the organization became the World Winter Cities Association for Mayors.

The World Winter Cities Association for Mayors (WWCAM) is a network of winter cities around the world that provides members with opportunities to meet and learn from each other about winter technologies and experiences under the slogan “Winter is a Resource and an Asset.” The association, originally the Northern Intercity Conference of Mayors, was initiated by the city of Sapporo in 1981, and the

following year the first Mayors Conference was held. In the past conferences, mayors have discussed various issues such as city planning, winter transportation, snow clearing and removal, waste recycling, tourism promotion and resources development, and learned from each other’s experiences and wisdom in order to obtain hints for “city development” and to learn about measures for overcoming severe climatic conditions. The Mayor of Sapporo has served as President of the World Winter Cities Association for Mayors since its establishment, and the Secretariat is located at the International Relations Department of the City of Sapporo.
