This assessment is based on a tool developed by ICLEI called QuickCheck N. As a self-assessment tool for cities, municipalities and counties with more than 5,000 inhabitants, it has been structured to give municipalities an initial impression of the strengths and weaknesses of their municipal sustainability management.
