Important Days
The United Nations (UN) has declared 31 October as World Cities Day. It aims to create awareness about the role of urbanization in global sustainable development and social inclusion. To emphasize the importance of making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. However, this is not always the case and, according to the United Nations, inequalities in cities have increased since the 1980s. The largest cities are also where you often find the biggest differences between people. World Cities Day aims to highlight the role of urbanization in providing the potential for new forms of social inclusion. These include greater equality, access to services and additional diversity. In this way cities can be designed to create opportunities, enable connections and interactions, and facilitate sustainable use of shared resources.
