إن نظم التخطيط الحضري المتبعة في الوقت الحاضر تفتقر للجاهزية اللازمة للتعامل مع أبرز التحديات الحضرية الناشئة في القرن الحادي والعشرين، بما في ذلك الآثار الناجمة عن ظاهرة تغير المناخ، واستنزاف الموارد، وحالة عدم الاستقرار الاقتصادي، وذلك إلى جانب الوتيرة السريعة لعمليات التحضر وما تنطوي عليه من تأثيرات سلبية كنشوء مظاهر الفقر، والأحياء الفقيرة، والمظاهر غير الرسمية في المناطق الحضرية. إضافة لذلك، فإن هذه النظم قد أخفقت إلى حد كبير في الإدراج الفعلي للأساليب المعيشية للمجتمعات الحضرية وغيرهم من أصحاب المصلحة ضمن عمليات تخطيط المناطق الحضرية، مما ساهم بالتالي في نشوء المشكلات المرتبطة بمظاهر التهميش والإقصاء العمراني. كما تتضح هنا ضرورة إعادة النظر في نظم التخطيط الحضري وتحفيزها لتحقيق المستقبل الحضري المستدام. ويطرح تقرير "تخطيط المدن المستدامة" أبرز التحديات الراهنة في كل من المدن والبلدات في جميع أنحاء العالم، بالإضافة للبحث في نشوء نظم التخطيط الحضري الحديثة وانتشارها، والنظر في مدى فعالية المنهجيات القائمة. والأهم من ذلك، فيتضمن هذا التقرير تحديداً لكل من المنهجيات والممارسات المبتكرة في مجال التخطيط الحضري والتي تشكل استجابة أكبر لكل من التحديات الراهنة والمستقبلية والمرتبطة بعمليات التحضر.

Enhancing Urban Safety and Security: Global Report on Human Settlements, 2007

Enhancing Urban Safety and Security addresses three major threats to the safety and security of cities: crime and violence; insecurity of tenure and forced evictions; and natural and human-made disasters. It analyses worldwide trends with respect to each of these threats, paying particular attention to their underlying causes and impacts, as well as to the good policies and best practices that have been adopted at the city, national and international levels in order to address these threats.

The report adopts a human security perspective, concerned with the safety and security of people rather than of states, and highlights issues that can be addressed through appropriate urban policy, planning, design and governance.
