Pioneering Urban Law in Vietnam. Knowledge Sharing on Urban Legislation for Sustainable Urban Development in Oman, Saudi Arabia.

Almost half of the world population will live in cities, which will undoubtedly heighten the challenges of urban liveability for cities where most dwellers struggle to secure basic amenities. In Vietnam, the level of urbanization is expected to rise from 33% in 2014 to 50% by 2030. Efforts have been made to address shortcomings in urban planning and management, such as the drafting of the National Urban Development Strategy, enacting the Law on Urban Development and Management. Additionally, projecting the Middle East into the future, especially the Sultanate of Oman and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, will require robust urban planning legislation because it defines urban forms, where land, infrastructure and basic services can be built as well as lays out rules for planning and decision-making. There can be no lasting change without effective legislation and multi-level governance.
