Partners UN-HABITAT,
the United Nations Human Settlements Programme, is the United Nations agency for
human settlements. It is mandated by the UN General Assembly to promote socially
and environmentally sustainable towns and cities with the goal of providing adequate
shelter for all. It helps transform cities into friendlier, healthier, greener
places with better opportunities where everyone including the urban poor can live
in dignity. UN-HABITAT is one of the few UN bodies that works
with organizations at every level, including local governments, to build, manage,
plan and finance cities without slums that are livable places for all, and which
do not pollute the atmosphere or deplete natural resources. The
world is at the dawn of a new urban era with most of humanity now living in cities.
UN-HABITAT is at the frontline of the battle against fast growing poverty in cities,
rapid urbanisation, unemployment, disasters and the scourge of climate change.
It does it by turning innovative ideas into action. The United Nations gateway
for cities, UN-HABITAT is flexible, focused, and responsive
to the aspirations
of cities and their residents. UN-HABITAT's programmes in
hundreds of cities around the world have a measurable impact upon the lives of
the urban poor as shown in its timely, accurate and quality reports on the agency's
drive to help the world attain the millennium target set by world leaders - to
significantly improve the lives of 100 million slum dwellers by the year 2020.
