Shanghai Manual A Guide For Sustainable Urban Development In The 21st Century· 2018 Annual Report 2018 The Shanghai Manual 2018 Annual Report focuses on three key elements.

First, it probes the theme of ecological cities and green development from the six perspectives developed since the World Expo 2010: ecology, society, culture, economics, governance and international cooperation, rather than a singular approach focusing only on the ecological environment. In doing so, 2018 Annual Report approaches the topic in an integrated and holistic manner, and highlights the importance of sustainable development,a fundamental principle of the United Nations. This also emphasises
the importance of addressing the complexities of sustainable urban development through an integrated and interdisciplinary approach.

Second, 2018 Annual Report further consists of a set of eighteen representative cases from the six perspectives. The cases comprise real practical cases, geographical representation, learning and replication.

Third, 2018 Annual Report extracts and summarises policy suggestions through the eighteen case studies, seeking to inspire cities worldwide in their journeys towards sustainable urban development.

International Guidelines on Urban and Territorial Planning (IG-UTP) Handbook 2018 In 2015, the Governing Council of UN-Habitat approved the International Guidelines on Urban and Territorial Planning as a set of universal principles for the improvement of policies, plans, designs and implementation processes that lead to more compact, socially inclusive, better integrated and connected cities and territories that foster sustainable urban development and are resilient to climate change. Still, while the Guidelines serve as a compass to guide decision-makers, a practical companion is required to operationalize their principles and recommendations. This handbook for the Guidelines is that companion, and part of a series of tools designed by UN-Habitat to improve planning practice.

The approach of the Guidelines requires that planning is examined not only as a technical tool for urban and territorial change, but is also tested for the quality of the decision-making processes. Thus, the handbook provides an overview of the scope of topics covered by the Guidelines and puts special emphasis on planning processes, products and outcomes while making reference to additional tools, literature and resources for planners, civil society actors and policy-makers at the national and local levels.

Alternative solutions to Forced Evictions and slum demolitions 2018 Globally, poverty in urban areas is evident in the proliferation of slums and informal settlements.

These issues continue to persist despite the fact that the right to adequate housing is guaranteed to all and a prerequisite to inclusive and sustainable urban centers.
