It is in this spirit of social transformation, of the construction of a new urban reality, through the exchange of ideas that aim to make cities more democratic, sustainable and, ultimately, human, that Brazil is pleased to host the Fifth Session of the World Urban Forum in Rio de Janeiro, in March, 2010. We are confident that, through the many discussions, exhibitions and Photo © Federative Republic of Brazil other events that are being planned, the Forum will provide a space for the elaboration of a common agenda with innovative and productive solutions for cities around the globe.” -- Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President of Brazil “The persistence of urban poverty is largely the result of weak urban economies and finance, and the absence of the instruments and institutions required to support housing and infrastructure finance. The current global financial crisis and credit crunch only exacerbates this situation. There is a risk that our efforts to meet the Millennium Development Goals, and to address the shelter crisis, will be rolled back.” -- Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations “When we speak of the right to the city, we are talking about ensuring that women, men, youth and children have equal access to basic services in the communities where they live. These basic services include access to potable water and adequate sanitation so that people can live in dignity and in an environment free from disease. The right to the city also implies minimum levels of safety and security so that people do not live in constant fear of being assaulted or of being robbed. The right to the city also includes affordable energy and public transport to facilitate access to jobs, education and recreation. The right to the city includes the right to adequate housing and the right for people to participate in decisions affecting their livelihoods. Finally, the right to the city should translate into equal opportunities for all to improve their living conditions and Photo © Urban Construction livelihoods without jeopardizing the rights of future generations to do Archive, Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province, China the same.“ -- Anna Tibaijuka, Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations and Executive Director, UN-HABITAT. 2 THE RIGHT TO THE CITY: BRIDGING THE URBAN DIVIDE THE RIGHT TO THE CITY: BRIDGING THE URBAN DIVIDE 3 THE FIFTH SESSION OF THE WORLD URBAN FORUM THE FIFTH SESSION OF THE WORLD URBAN FORUM Daily programme FRIDAY, 19 MARCH 2010 EVENT ROOM PAGE GENDER EQUALITY ACTION ASSEMBLY “I would like to welcome you to the city of Rio de Janeiro and also to the D Fifth Session of the World Urban Forum. 08:45-10:00 OPENING CEREMONY W3-14 75 PROGRAMME AILY 10:30-11:00 1.

  • Communiqué from the Urban 20 (U20)
    Communiqué from the Urban 20 (U20) October 2, 2020, Riyadh We, the Mayors of the undersigned cities, underscoring the interconnectedness of the world and our shared future, have gathered as the Urban 20 (U20) to call on the G20 Leaders to commit to our partnership in achieving equitable, carbon-neutral, inclusive and healthy societies. Under the U20 Riyadh’s chairmanship, U20 cities built on the strong foundation of the U20 Buenos Aires and Tokyo legacies to issue this Communiqué linking to the G20 priorities under the Saudi presidency, and with contributions from evidence-based task forces and a special working group on COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing social and economic crisis make this call even more urgent as cities and metropolitan areas, that lie at the heart of the G20’s vitality, are the epicenter of the crisis. Mayors, the principal champions of our communities’ aspirations, are on the frontline to deliver on COVID-19 recovery action plans across the G20, backed by scientific knowledge, inclusively building on technological and digital breakthroughs, while acknowledging humanity’s cultural and ethnic diversity. The recovery should not be a return to business as usual. Instead, investments must improve the welfare and resilience of our cities and communities, by addressing solidarity, re-investing in public health, and mitigating future threats, like the climate crisis. Climate action and biodiversity preservation can help accelerate economic recovery and enhance equity through new technologies and the creation of green jobs. These efforts will also drive wider benefits for people and businesses. Now is the time to devise visionary multilateral solutions and strengthen policy-making that fosters inclusive, sustainable, resilient and smart urbanization, protects the rights of citizens and the foundations of local democracy, in support of prosperity and well-being framed by key global agreements.

  • Government Earmarks SEK 1 Million for Promotion Initiatives Swedish Music, Fashion and Digital Games Are a Few Industries That Can Promote the Image of Sweden Abroad
    2010 Press release 31 August 2010 Ministry for Foreign Affairs Music and fashion to put Sweden on the map - Government earmarks SEK 1 million for promotion initiatives Swedish music, fashion and digital games are a few industries that can promote the image of Sweden abroad. They are three creative industries that have a good reputation beyond our borders, and there is a great deal of interest in them. This is why the Government is now investing even more in the experience industry, especially since we have seen that activities previously conducted abroad have generated a lot of interest and received a positive response. These investments have helped to attract more tourists to Sweden and created an interest among foreign entrepreneurs in business opportunities. Our talented songwriters, designers and others involved in the experience industry abroad have helped to put Sweden on the world map. For a small country, Sweden has a strong position as an exporter of music - we are ranked fifth after other countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom. The music business is an important part of the Swedish experience industry, which is an expanding export industry and a major growth sector. In 2009, the experience industry accounted for over 5 per cent of Sweden's GDP, and it employs 280 000 people. "We have seen that the experience industry is very important for people's image of Sweden abroad. When I'm out travelling, I often hear how people associate Sweden with Abba, Max Martin, Robyn, DICE and Odd Molly. This is why it's really important that we promote this sector, so that we can become even stronger and more talked about beyond our borders," says Minister for Trade Ewa Björling, who is responsible for promoting the image of Sweden.
