The New England Municipal Sustainability (NEMS) Network is a consortium of New England cities and towns that collaborate to build more sustainable communities. The NEMS Network vision is to create a sustainable New England by building strong connections among municipal sustainability professionals throughout the region, allowing members to accomplish more than would be possible alone.

The NEMS Network consists of municipal sustainability professionals who advance mutually beneficial sustainability goals in the region through collaboration and information sharing. It is a recognized member of the Urban Sustainability Directors Network (USDN). The UNH Sustainability Institute serves as the backbone organization for the NEMS Network.
