World Cities Report
The study of urban development is the main objective of the World Cities Report series. Merging the State of the World Cities Report and the Global Report on Human Settlements, these reports highlight new forms of collaboration and cooperation, planning, governance, finance and learning that can sustain positive change. They demonstrate that the current urbanization model is unsustainable. The message is that the pattern of urbanization must change in order to respond to the challenges of our time, to address issues such as inequality, climate change, informality, insecurity, and unsustainable forms of urban expansion.
