This publication is addressed to stakeholders at all levels, setting out specific promises and challenges of achieving sustainable urbanisation. It elaborates on many of the issues raised at the first World Urban Forum that was held at UN- HABITAT’s headquarters in Nairobi in April-May 2002. At that forum, the full range of Habitat Agenda Partners came together to develop the concept of ‘sustainable urbanisation’ and discuss its implementation, as a joint message for the World Summit for Sustainable Development.
