“The 13th Session of the UN World Urban Forum (WUF13) plays an important role in promoting practical solutions and the exchange of experiences on sustainable urban development,” said Kazuko Ishigaki, Regional Director of the UN-Habitat Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific, during the panel session titled “The Rechargeable Landscape: Powering Sustainable, Resilient Housing with Nature-Based Systems,” held within the framework of WUF13, according to AZERTAC.
According to her, one of the main outcomes of the discussions held within WUF13 was the narrowing of the existing gap between policy and implementation.
“Successful housing and urban development policies can only translate into real results if capacities are strengthened at the local level,” Kazuko Ishigaki underlined.
