| Enhancing and Developing Seismic Risk Assesment for Sagaing City of Myanmar | 2015 | Sagaing city is lying on the Sagaing Fault, however no studies have been carried out to assess their earthquake related risk. In addition, Sagaing has undergone recent urban developments with the construction of higher storey buildings. In this regard, earthquake related risk assessment in Sagaing is carried out to estimate the damages. The findings from this report can lead to develop comprehensive risk reduction programs addressing the specific vulnerabilities as well as guiding the future development in the cities along with UN-Habitat’s Myanmar Comprehensive Disaster Risk Reduction Programme and also with broader DRR-WG activities and those of initiatives by the local and national Government. |

| International Guidelines on Urban and Territorial Planning | 2015 | The need for planning cannot be over-emphasized. Urbanization is progressing rapidly and by 2050, seven out of ten people will be living in cities. Inappropriate policies, plans and designs have led to inadequate spatial distribution of people and activities, resulting in proliferation of slums, congestion, poor access to basic services, environmental degradation, and social inequity and segregation. |

| Urban Energy Technical Note 21: Sustainable Building Finance | 2015 | Finance has been identified among the most important barriers for the adoption of green building designs, and is the topic this guide seeks to address. The regional market presently does not provide adequate financial mechanisms and alternative lending products, i.e. green mortgages or preferential loans for sustainable, green and energy efficient buildings, and asset finance for integrated renewable energy networks. International experience with such products can inform how green property finance can develop in East Africa. |
