About this Event
“Institutions must reflect today’s world, not that of 80 years ago.”
- António Guterres, UN Secretary-General
As we witness an unprecedented pace of urbanisation, coupled with intensifying environmental concerns, the landscape of urban governance is undergoing a radical shift.
The traditional approaches, often limited to short-term outlooks and one-off solutions are insufficient to the challenges on the urban horizon. The complexity and scale of future urban challenges demand a revolutionary approach. This underscores the urgent need for a paradigm shift - a transformation in our institutions to foster long-term, mission-driven strategies that don’t just skim the surface but delve deep into the root of urban issues. This shift is essential to weave a future where our cities are not just surviving global challenges but are resilient and adaptable to those.
This session extends an invitation for a dialogue on the essential capabilities, guiding principles, and collaborative strategies vital for the institutions and cities of the future. A special emphasis will be placed on initiatives spearheaded by female city leaders at the forefront of tackling urbanization challenges. Join us in exploring the approaches of the leaders of Accra, Kampala, Skopje and Quezon and how we can collectively lead our cities into a thriving and sustainable tomorrow!
