▪ Sustainable Development Goals, Agenda 2030
▪ The New Urban Agenda
“The battle for sustainable development will be won or lost in cities.
There is a need for a radical paradigm shift in the way cities and
human settlements are planned, developed, governed and managed.
The decisions we make today will shape our common urban future.”
Global context for resilience
![Page 4: Urban Resilience: Commonwealth and Global Perspectivesbluespacecaribbean.com/.../Urban-Resilience...and-Global-Perspectiv… · Global Perspectives Clive Harridge Head of Planning,](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042306/5ed257d6a29f5b6b96113a41/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Global challenge – scale of urban growth
• Global population to rise from 3.4 to 6.4 billion people in 35 years
• % living in cities: 1913 – 10% , 2013 - 50%, 2050 -70%
• In Commonwealth:
0.75 billion people live in urban areas - growing at 65,000 / day, 23.5 million pa
Almost half annual urban growth is in slums (Slum dwellers growing 10m pa
2010: 400m+ live in slums / 50% of urban population
.

Population Growth Developed vs. Developing
Between 2015 and 2050 the urban population
in Less Developed Countries will increase by
2.35 billion, or 18 times the expected increase
of 130 million in More Developed Countries.

Global challenge – Lack of skilled professionals
Key findings
- Critical lack of capacity in many countries
- Lack of capacity most acute in countries which are
rapidly urbanising and most vulnerable
- Lack of education and institutional capacity to grow
profession fast enough
- Comparable findings in other built environment
professions

Resilience – physical infrastructure needs
![Page 17: Urban Resilience: Commonwealth and Global Perspectivesbluespacecaribbean.com/.../Urban-Resilience...and-Global-Perspectiv… · Global Perspectives Clive Harridge Head of Planning,](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042306/5ed257d6a29f5b6b96113a41/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• $3.3 trillion pa needed to fund urban infrastructure to
2030 to support growth. |Currently only $2.5 trillion.
(McKinsey)
• $1 trillion pa needed in developing countries to
bridge gap between what is being built and what is
needed (World Bank)
• Compared to developing country peers, lower &
middle income cities are heavily dependent on
national subsidy
• Public sector must explore ways to attract significant
more private sector financing above the 20-30%
share it currently holds (ADB)

6 Steps:
1. Develop vision for future urban growth
2. Map existing city
3. Identify appropriate areas for new urban
growth
4. Structure the growth areas
5. Implement the urban structure
6. Detailed planning at neighbourhood level

PLANNERS 4 CLIMATE ACTION
A Global initiative by Planners: P4CA

P4CA
• Launched at COP-23, Bonn 2017
• P4CA is placed under the UNFCCC’s
Marrakesh Partnership of non-State
actors for Global Climate Action. It is
registered under the NAZCA (Non-State
Actors Zone for Climate Action) Platform.

Our Mission
Catalyze and accelerate climate action through responsible and
transformative urban and regional planning:
1. PRACTICE: Integrate climate change in the professional practices
of all planners and their institutions through integrated
approaches that reduce emissions, and prepare human
settlements to adapt to climate change.
2. CAPACITY-BUILDING: Build the capacity of all planners by
ensuring that all graduate-level urban/regional planning curricula
prepare planners to be effective climate change professionals.
3. RESEARCH: Support and commission research that can
strengthen knowledge at the intersection of planning practices
and climate change.
