Be part of regional campaigns through the WUC towards WUF 11! The City We Need Now in Africa, Asia,

Dear WUC Partners, dear Followers, dear friends, We will soon launch The City We Need Now! Action Campaign towards the World Urban Forum 11. The campaign will raise awareness on the role of cities as accelerators to achieve the New Urban Agenda and the SDGs towards a better urban future! We cannot loose time any longer and need to take action now! One way is to join hands in cities and communities to accelerate action through catalytic partnerships and by promoting the best solutions to the current challenges. In 2022, we will also launch regional action campaigns in order to better contextualise actions and solutions and reach broader audiences. We are therefore calling upon your organizations to express your interest in participating in these regional campaigns through events, webinars, action days, etc. Some of your organizations may take the lead or simply contribute and benefit from the visibility of these campaigns towards the World Urban Forum 11, to be held in Katowice at the end of June 2022.
