How to Formulate a National Urban Policy
Other Documents
Managing the unprecedented scale of urbanization in developing countries is now becoming imperative, not least because the next 10 years will see nearly a billion more people around the world moving to urban areas. Governments have to prepare for this and the demands that such growth will have on urban infrastructure, resources and finances by developing a national urban policy that adequately responds to the challenges of urbanization. Formulating such a policy is the focus of this document. It is one in a series of documents produced by UN-Habitat that, collectively, assist all stakeholders to develop a national urban policy. Covering issues such as the responsibilities of various stakeholders, what are the possible policy options, where should funds come from, and who will lead implementation, this guide is an indispensable reference for policy makers, urban development departments and government ministries.
