Metropolitan observatories - Structuring and Implementation Guide - Spanish
Other Documents
UN-Habitat, through its MetroHUB initiative, presents this document of “Metropolitan Observatories”, with the purpose of offering a guide in the development of instruments for the management and generation of metropolitan knowledge, as technical support to strengthen capacities in planning and metropolitan development management and as a tool to improve the urbanization process at a global level within the framework of its vision for "A better quality of life for all in a world in the process of urbanization" Metropolitan observatories contribute to co-building sustainable metropolitan development, by producing quality information and analysis documents and monitoring metropolitan dynamics to assess progress in sustainable territorial development. They strengthen metropolitan planning and governance by facilitating the identification of:
• Urban dynamics that affect or enhance metropolitan development
• Metropolitan projects for equity in territorial development
• The policies and regulations necessary for metropolitan coordination
• Territorial phenomena for land use planning plans.
In this MetroHUB guide, you will find the conceptualization and characterization of a metropolitan observatory, the basic elements of its structure, the qualities of the information it produces, the focus, themes and sources of its indicators, and a route for its design and implementation. A metropolitan territory that implements this knowledge management instrument will have competitive differentiation in territorial governance, real-time and flexible planning, technological innovation, generation of future scenarios and multi-scale harmonization of strategies and plans
