Sustainable Cities and Communities

Cities have great potential to enable people to advance socially and economically, but inequality is a big concern.

Many people live in slums, energy consumption and pollution are rising, and many cities are vulnerable to climate change.

Some targets that will help this goal

1) By 2030, provide universal access to safe, inclusive and accessible, green and public spaces, in particular for women and children, older persons and persons with disabilities.

2) Support positive economic, social and environmental links between urban, peri-urban and rural areas by strengthening national and regional development planning.

3) Support least developed countries, including through financial and technical assistance, in building sustainable and resilient buildings utilizing local materials
