<\/h2>\n

On 21 October 2016, Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Member States agreed upon the New Urban Agenda at the Habitat III Conference in Quito, Ecuador. This Agenda sets a new global standard for sustainable urban development and will help us rethink how we plan, manage and live in cities.<\/p>\n

To maintain momentum around the implementation of the New Urban Agenda and to reflect on the positioning of Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ-Habitat in that regard, the President of the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ General Assembly convenes a two-day high-level meeting of the General Assembly on 5 and 6 September 2017.<\/p>\n

The meeting will discuss best practices and success stories in relation to the implementation of the New Urban Agenda. It will also address the measures contained in the Report from the Secretary General\u2019s Independent Panel to Assess, Enhance Effectiveness of Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ-Habitat after Adoption of New Urban Agenda, which was published at the beginning of August 2017.<\/p>\n
