Urban Impact Issue 30

In this issue, we highlight key milestones on the road to the World Urban Forum 13, with registration now open and applications launched for partner-led events, marking an important moment for stakeholders to shape the global urban dialogue ahead of WUF13.

We also feature notable UN-Habitat publications, including Urban Content in NDC 3.0: A Global Snapshot for COP30, the WUF12 Report, and the Annual Report 2024, offering insights into progress, lessons learned, and emerging priorities for sustainable urbanization.

From the field, discover how Guarani indigenous twins in São Paulo are combining improved sanitation with ancestral tradition, and how rebuilding safer schools in Afghanistan is helping keep girls learning, demonstrating how inclusive, resilient approaches are translating into real impact.

Join us as we continue to share the stories, knowledge, and partnerships shaping more inclusive and resilient cities.
