Interpretation EN – ES – FR – KO
The New Urban Agenda is a critical cornerstone and accelerator for the achievement of the universal development agendas. More than five years on since its adoption, commitment by national governments must be strengthened and the role of local and regional governments in its achievement must be recognized. This session will facilitate a dialogue between key actors involved in the mobilization around the New Urban Agenda to discuss how joint strategies can be developed and strengthened, taking into account the key role that intermediary cities play in the future of the global agendas.
