Description

The New Urban Agenda was adopted in 2016 at the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development in Quito, Ecuador, and endorsed by the Assembly in that same year. It contains a shared vision that properly planned and managed urbanization can serve as a powerful tool for sustainable development, and the Secretary-General is tasked with reporting on progress towards the implementation of the Agenda every four years. The report for this year — and today’s high-level meeting — serves as the Agenda’s mid-term review.
