URBAN DIALOGUE ON
INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS
OPENS TODAY!
The Habitat III Thematic Meeting on Informal Settlements will be held in Pretoria on 7–8 April 2016. To contribute to the ongoing process towards a New Urban Agenda, you can add your voice in shaping the future policies of the cities where you live by joining this Urban Dialogue.
The significant increase of the world’s urban population leads to a crisis of unprecedented magnitude in urban shelter provision. All these new urban citizens need to be provided with shelter, employment, and urban basic services. The limited capacity of most urban economies in developing countries makes it a challenge to meet these needs, so most of the employment and housing are found in the informal sector, where around 67% of the urban population in developing countries are currently living
and working.
From now until 3 April, individuals and organizations have the opportunity to contribute their input on the topic of Informal Settlements to the
Habitat III process.
The urban dialogue on Informal Settlements highlights both the challenges and opportunities cities face.
