  • Steering-The-Metropolis-V20
    Steering the Metropolis Metropolitan Governance for Sustainable Urban Development Editors David Gómez-Álvarez • Eduardo López-Moreno • Robin Rajack Steering the Metropolis Metropolitan Governance for Sustainable Urban Development Editors David Gómez-Álvarez Eduardo López-Moreno Robin Rajack 3 Overview The publication proposed here provides state of the art scholarship on integrated approaches to metropolitan governance. The goal is to provide a variety of examples about the leading edge of effective metropolitan governance from a broad range of geographic, cross- disciplinary and thematic perspectives. A select group of scholars and experts examine current models of metropolitan governance as well as adminis- trative challenges and opportunities to achieve sustainable urban development. These examples carry different forms of innovation in areas such as planning, fnance, housing, services and citizen participation. Rationale In the last ffty years, migration, demographic changes and the transformation of land from rural to urban have provoked unprecedented rapid and expansive urbanization in different regions of the world, particularly in the Global South. In other regions from the Global North cities tend to shrink or stabilize in their populations having different gover- nance challenges. Increasingly metropolitan in character, urban expansion – and in some cases contraction - has brought to the fore a multiplicity of issues and diverse popula- tions at the intersection of different levels of governance. The spatial, legal, political, and social complexities of this phenomenon make effective metropolitan governance one of the most pressing challenges of our time in the search of sustainability. Today, it is diffcult to fnd a city of more than 500,000 inhabitants that is made only of one municipality.

Cover: Quito urban pattern The printing of this publication was supported by the Government of the Republic of Ecuador. ii FOREWORD FOREWORD The New Urban Agenda represents a shared vision for a better and more sustainable future – one in which all people have equal rights and access to the benefits and opportunities that cities can offer, and in which the international community reconsiders the urban systems and physical form of our urban spaces to achieve this. In this unprecedented era of increasing urbanization, and in the context of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Paris Agreement, and other global development agreements and frameworks, we have reached a critical point in understanding that cities can be the source of solutions to, rather than the cause of, the challenges that our world is facing today.

  • Metropolis Paper on NUA 17 April 2015
    A New Urban Agenda for the World – Ideas and Recommendations from a Metro- politan Perspective Declaration of Buenos Aires1 Member states of the United Nations have agreed to convene the Third United Nations Con- ference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) in October 2016 in Qui- to, Ecuador. At a time of rapid urbanisation, in which 70 per cent of the world’s population is expected to live in cities by 2050, Habitat III aims at a New Urban Agenda as a global policy guideline for sustainable urban development. METROPOLIS, the World Association of the Major Metropolises, is supportive of the idea of a New Urban Agenda. With this paper it is contributing ideas and recommendations to the dialogue on a future agenda. As the New Urban Agenda (NUA) is not drafted yet, the paper begins by analysing discussions within the framework of the UN on sustainable urban devel- opment. At the same time, it analyses the situation of metropolitan cities and regions as well. Currently, member states are discussing local governance and urban development in the context of the broader Post-2015 Development Agenda with its universal Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Metropolitan cities and regions support the development of the NUA agenda, but do so from the pragmatic perspective of the local level, where most of the agenda implementation will be delivered. METROPOLIS is hopeful that the Habitat III process and the New Urban Agenda will go be- yond the SDGs and define more clearly the goals, targets and necessary means of implemen- tation for sustainable urban development.
