With poverty eradication, environmental sustainability, and
sustainable consumption and production as the over-arching
development goals, UN-Habitat - the United Nations Human
Settlements agency - believes that urban areas are an asset and
a solution, and that the urbanization process can be steered and
shaped. UN-Habitat is committed to working towards promoting
an urban paradigm shift for creating cities where economies
of agglomeration and scale are maximized, collective interest
prevails, transport and service delivery costs are minimized, use
of land is optimized and open spaces are protected and better
organized.
The Annual Report for 2012 lists the initiatives undertaken,
outputs, lessons learned, best practices introduced as well as
the challenges in the coming period.
