The program also aims to share knowledge amongst municipalities by sharing best practices, promote cooperation and synergies between urban and rural municipalities,  and award municipal driven projects.

New for the 2023 municipal awards, awards will be presented to the top municipal initiative,
the top rural municipal initiative, and the top urban municipal initiative, that demonstrate
innovation and betterment for their municipality. A Regional Cooperation Award is also
given out to urban and rural municipalities working together on a cooperative project.
