Report of the third Session of the World Urban Forum

Un-Habitat

Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: The quest for innovative ideas and practical solutions – rare for a meeting convened by the United Nations – was underscored in the six Dialogues, 13 Roundtables and more than 160 Networking Events. Ministers, mayors, academics, community-based organizations, federations of non-governmental organizations, and the private sector shared their insights and experiences on what would improve the quality of life in the world’s growing cities. The inclusive approach followed at the Forum is a model for cities. Some are already following this model while others would benefit from doing so.
