The five milestones help local authorities understand how municipal decisions concern urban energy use, illustrating global climate change mitigation through reduced energy use.<ref name="Lindseth, 2004" /> The founding body of the CCP, ICLEI, provides member cities with guidance, training and technical assistance to complete the five milestones.

ICLEI initially operated a top-down governing approach of the CCP program, coordinated from the ICLEI’s international base, Toronto.<ref name="Betsill, M. M. & Bulkeley, H. 2004" /> In an attempt to introduce a [[multi-level governance]] approach toward the delivery of the CCP program, national and regional campaigns were formed, decentralising the program. The UK, US, Australia, Canada, Finland, India, Mexico and South Africa amongst others saw national campaigns, whilst regional campaigns merged throughout Europe, Asia and Latin America.<ref name="Betsill, M. M. & Bulkeley, H. 2004" /> Financial resources are contributed significantly by nation-state governments especially in the US, Canada and Australia toward their national campaigns. Similarly, the ICLEI Europe receives direct funding from the European Commission, creating resource opportunities for transnational networks through project and initiative competition.<ref name="Betsill, M. M. & Bulkeley, H. 2004" /> The decentralisation still demonstrates resilient transnational [[network governance]] but now operating on a multi-level governance scale.
