Right to the City: A Roadmap for Climate Justice
Image

The Global Platform for the Right to the City (GPR2C) published the thematic Paper of the collective learning process: “Right to the City: a roadmap for Climate Justice” , written by Álvaro Puertas Robina, former Habitat International Coalition Secretary-General, and supported by the Reference Group.

The paper sheds light on the potential of the Right to the City as “one of the reference frameworks to guide equitable Climate Action”. It exposes some of the shortcomings of the global agendas (Paris Agreement, 2030 Agenda and the New Urban Agenda), but also points to possible entry points to more concretely embed human rights within these agendas. Include good practices and recommendations for local governments and civil society.

GPR2C at the High-Level Political Forum 2021

The GPR2C will participate in the 2021 High-Level Political Forum on sustainable development (6-15th July) to bring an urgent appeal to the United Nations and all international, regional, national and local institutions and civil society organizations to renew their commitments to the implementation of the Right to the City, SDGs and NUA for an equitable recovery from COVID-19.
