A campaign to engage UN-Habitat partners and citizens in Egypt on sustainable urbanization towards the World Urban Forum 12

to make it a meaningful event for the future of the country.  

  • The Egypt Urban Campaign is a coordinated effort to mobilize partners for action and promote successful solutions for better cities in Egypt.

  • On the lead to the World Urban Forum 12 to be held in Cairo (4 to 8 November 2024), the Egypt Urban Campaign is an inclusive conversation around six essential pillars: People, Heritage (cultural and natural), Resilience, Inclusion, Well-being and Housing.

  • By joining the Egypt Urban Campaign, your events and actions will be promoted and recognized for their value and impact on the ground prior to the World Urban Forum. You will have a voice on key topics in events such as Urban Thinkers Campuses to share transformative ideas and solutions bringing together urban thinkers, encouraging interdisciplinary dialogue.
