SDSN BLOG: SUSTAINABLE CITIES POST-2015

By Aromar Revi and Cynthia Rosenzweig

The SDSN has been a leading participant in the debate over how to include urban issues in the post-2015 development agenda. Although there is widespread agreement on the importance of urbanization and urban centers for sustainable development in rich and poor countries alike, there is less agreement on how they should be included in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Two options exist: (1) a dedicated urban SDG could be adopted with targets focused on social, economic, and environmental priorities; (2) urbanization could be “mainstreamed” into other goals, and data could be disaggregated by urban and rural populations.

In its June 2013 Action Agenda for Sustainable Development , SDSN proposed a stand-alone urban SDG. As explained in the SDSN Issue Brief Why the World Needs an Urban SDG , a stand-alone urban SDG is needed to: (1) educate the public and decision makers on urgent urban challenges and opportunities; (2) mobilize and empower local governments and other urban actors for the SDGs; (3) address the specific challenges of urban poverty and access to infrastructure; (4) promote integrated and innovative infrastructure design and service delivery; (5) promote land use planning and efficient spatial concentration; and (6) ensure resilience to climate change and disaster risk.

In September 2013, SDSN and partner organizations launched the Campaign for an Urban SDG , a global campaign in support of a dedicated, stand-alone urban SDG. With its own website ( www.urbansdg.org ) and Twitter handle (#urbanSDG), the Campaign is gaining traction. It has now been endorsed by over 175 cities and municipalities as well as over 40 organizations, including UN Habitat, the World Urban Campaign, UCLG (United Cities and Local Governments), Cities Alliance, ICLEI (Local Governments for Sustainable Development), Shack/Slum Dwellers International (SDI), Metropolis, Communitas Coalition, nrg4SD (Network of Regional Governments for Sustainable Development), and C40.

Further successes include the submission of a letter to the Co-Chairs of the Open Working Group from the new C40 Chair, Eduardo Paes, Mayor of Rio de Janeiro, as well as 41 other mayors, calling for an urban SDG. The appointment of Michael Bloomberg, former mayor of New York, as the UN Special Envoy on Cities and Climate Change will also help keep the world’s focus on the need to address urban challenges.

Participating organizations of the Campaign for an Urban SDG continue to provide numerous inputs into the post-2015 debate. For example, UN Habitat has provided the TST Issue Brief on Sustainable Cities and Human Settlements and the Compilation for Sustainable Cities in the Sustainable Development Goals. UCLG launched a UCLG campaign to enlist the support of its member cities and municipalities , and organized several meetings during the “Sustainable Cities Days” at the UN, in December 2013. ICLEI has partnered with UN Habitat, nrg4SD, Ford Foundation and the Tellus Institute to establish the Communitas Coalition for Sustainable Cities , which organized a workshop, producing six issues papers and draft urban targets. Meanwhile Cities Alliance has reached out to member states and cities throughout the world to deepen the discussion around an urban SDG.

On January 6 and 7, 2014, the SDSN Thematic Group on Sustainable Cities participated in the 7 th Session of the Open Working Group (OWG) on Sustainable Development Goals at the UN General Assembly, making a strong case for an urban SDG to the UN member states, UN agencies and urban partners present. Over 120 UN member states were present for the debate specifically on sustainable cities and many made statements regarding their positions.

Thanks to all of these efforts support for an urban SDG is building steadily.  In January, the Campaign for an Urban SDG website received over 6,000 hits. In March, the City Builders Global Network organized a Twitter campaign to support an #urbanSDG during the 9 th session of the OWG and started a petition on Change.com to provide individuals with a platform to support the urban SDG. Over 20 UN member states have so far expressed support for a dedicated urban SDG, 50 are neutral, and the rest have not taken a position. Germany recently came out officially in favor of an urban SDG , and other countries are expected to join the Group of Friends of Sustainable Cities co-chaired by Singapore and Sweden.

SDSN’s work on sustainable cities is part of a broader effort to propose a comprehensive framework of ten goals and 30 targets for the entire sustainable development agenda. Our systems-based approach to framing integrated goals that can mobilize key communities of actors has been widely praised. We are now preparing a report on Indicators for the SDGs and have just completed a 6-week public consultation during which time the report was downloaded more than 18,000 times. The report outlines how the complex SDG agenda could potentially be monitored using no more than 100 indicators. It is our hope that it will prove an important input into the “decision-making” phase of the OWG debate.

This “decision-making” phase is now in full swing. On February 21, 2014, the OWG co-chairs released a list of 19 “focus areas”. One focus area is sustainable cities and human settlements, with many others including topics that are vital to cities (e.g., infrastructure, water and sanitation, energy). The OWG is in the midst of a series of five “decision-making” meetings, which will culminate in a report to the General Assembly in September 2014. Their upcoming meeting will focus on clustering the 19 focus areas into a smaller number of SDGs.

With UN member states taking open positions on the framing of the SDGs, now is the time to mobilize our partners and mayors, to engage member states in their capitals as well at the United Nations in New York. We encourage all SDSN members to visit the campaign website , to tweet in support of an #urbanSDG and to sign the Change.com position as individuals. We are counting on your support!

Aromar Revi is Director of the Indian Institute for Human Settlements (IIHS) and Cynthia Rosenzweig is Professor at Barnard College and Senior Research Scientist at Goddard Institute for Space Studies. They co-chair the SDSN Thematic Group on Sustainable Cities.

This Month’s Spotlight: Urban Sustainability

Each SDSN Members’ Bulletin will focus on a major element of the SDSN’s work. Today’s topic is urban sustainability.

The importance of urban development

Urbanization will be the defining trend in the coming decades, especially in East Asia, South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, where the bulk of extreme poverty is concentrated. Cities, in these and other regions, will play a central role in the ability of nations to achieve sustainable development. Today, half the world’s seven billion people live in cities. By 2030 there will be over one billion more urban residents and for the first time ever, in many parts of the world, the number of rural residents will start to shrink. Between 2010 and 2050, the urban population will grow significantly, by 2.5 to 3 billion people, increasing the urban share to two-thirds of the total world population.

Urbanization has the ability to transform the social and economic fabric of nations. Cities are responsible for the bulk of production and consumption worldwide and are the primary engines of economic growth and development. Roughly three-quarters of global economic activity is urban and as the urban population grows, so will the urban share of global GDP and investments. The right to development for low-income and middle-income countries can only be realized through sustainable urbanization that addresses the needs of both rural and urban areas.

It must also be recognized that cities are home to extreme deprivation and environmental degradation, with one billion people living in slums. In many countries the number of slum dwellers has increased significantly in recent years and urban inequality is deepening.

The dynamism of cities represents a major sustainable development opportunity. By getting urban development right, cities can create jobs and offer better livelihoods; increase economic growth; improve social inclusion; promote the decoupling of living standards and economic growth from environmental resource use; protect local and regional ecosystems; reduce both urban and rural poverty; and drastically reduce pollution. Sound urban development will accelerate progress towards achieving SDGs, including the end of extreme poverty.

On the other hand, mistakes made in managing urban growth are very hard to undo. Infrastructure investments, urban land-use systems, and layouts are literally cast in stone – with impacts that may be difficult to alter for many decades. Without adequate management and investments, slums may expand, and cities may fail to generate the jobs necessary to improve livelihoods. As a result, inequalities, exclusion, and violence may increase. Countries may fail to decouple economic development from resource use, and cities may fail to provide economic opportunities to surrounding rural areas and become vulnerable to climate and other environmental changes.

Cities around the world are struggling to accommodate their rising populations and address the multi-dimensional challenges of urban development. If current trends continue, few countries stand to reap the benefits of sustainable urban development. The stakes are high. How the SDGs address the urban challenge and how cities promote a shift away from “business as usual” is of paramount importance to the post-2015 development agenda.

The case for an urban SDG

There are six main reasons for an urban SDG, which has the potential to:

  1. Educate and focus attention on urgent urban challenges and future opportunities,
  2. Mobilize and empower all urban actors around practical problem solving,
  3. Address the specific challenges of urban poverty and access to infrastructure,
  4. Promote integrated and innovative infrastructure design and service delivery,
  5. Promote land use planning and efficient spatial concentration,
  6. Ensure resilience to climate change and disaster risk reduction.An urban SDG will mobilize cities and promote the integration of the economic, social, environmental, and governance dimensions of sustainable development. Such a systems approach to urban development offers the best chance for seizing the opportunities presented by rapid urbanization and avoiding its potential pitfalls. A coordinated effort via an urban SDG could transform the lives of vast numbers of urban dwellers, across a wide range of countries with very different income levels.

An urban goal and its targets must be carefully framed to address key issues. It must be universally applicable, incorporating a set of indicators that can be adapted to accommodate differing development stages (e.g. rapidly growing small cities and more stable, or shrinking, large cities) in all parts of the world. The urban goal must be limited in scope, so it is manageable and possible to implement by 2030, and must be mirrored by coordinated regional interventions to address the specific challenges of rural development. The SDGs proposed by the SDSN have been designed to respond to these needs.

What might indicators for an urban SDG look like?

In its draft report Indicators for the SDGs , the SDSN has suggested an integrated set of 100 core indicators for the SDGs plus several dozen Tier 2 indicators that countries may track in addition to core indicators. Some of the core indicators that are particularly relevant for cities include:

63

Percentage of urban population with incomes below national extreme poverty line (adapted MDG Indicator)

64

[Indicator on the deployment of a sustainable development strategy for each urban agglomeration above [250,000] to be developed]

65

Proportion of urban population living in slums or informal settlements (MDG Indicator)

57

Percentage of urban population using basic drinking water (modified MDG Indicator)

58

Percentage of urban population using basic sanitation (modified MDG Indicator)

66

Proportion of urban households with weekly solid waste collection

67

Proportion of urban households with access to reliable public transportation

60

Mobile broadband subscriptions per 100 inhabitants in urban areas

68

Mean urban air pollution of particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5)

69

Percentage of wastewater flows treated to national standards, by domestic and industrial sources

70

Urban green space per capita

56

Economic losses from disasters in urban areas, by climatic and non-climatic events (in US$) [Indicator to be specified]

71

Share of the population with access to modern cooking solutions (%)

72

Share of the population with access to reliable electricity (%)

A revised version of the report and indicator set will be published in the second half of April.

SDSN Canada 2021 Members Meeting Recap

By Giovanni Bruna • 29 Jul, 2021 •

SDSN Canada reconvened the network membership on June 16th, 2021 for the annual Members Meeting.

This year's meeting featured conversations on the current state of the SDGs in Canada, emerging opportunities for post-secondary institutions, networking breakout sessions, and a featured joint presentation by the Brookings Institution and Rockefeller Foundation on mobilizing campuses and communities for the SDGs using the 17 Rooms initiative. A lightning round of member initiatives was also included to highlight a portion of the SDG work happening across the network.

Recap the discussion by reading the meeting notes   or listening to the audio recordings for each session.

Meeting Highlights:

  • The SDSN Global annual Sustainable Development Report 2021  was released June 2021, tracking progress on the SDGs by country (Canada ranked 21st in the world). The report outlines the short-term impacts of COVID-19 on the SDGs and describes how the SDGs can frame the recovery.
  • The Government of Canada has released Canada’s National Strategy for the SDGs, Moving Forward Together. The strategy outlines a set of 30 actions towards the SDGs, including localizing the SDGs, supporting partnerships with Indigenous initiatives, and advancing research into the gaps in Canada's efforts to achieve the 2030 Agenda.
  • The 17 Rooms initiative  is a tool for advancing SDG collaboration, community-centric conversations, and bottom-up action. There are three key principles of consideration:
    • Every SDG gets a seat at the table (a dedicated room).
    • Identify what the next step is, and not the perfect step. What are things you can do together over the next 12 to 18 months that you can implement action on the SDGs?
    • It is about conversations, not presentations. The goal is to learn from each other and create a community of practice.
    • Join the 17 Rooms-X Community of Practice to access the beta toolkit.
  • A ‘lightning round’ of presentations by members spotlighting SDG work from Colleges and Institutes Canada, the Interdisciplinary Research Center in the Operationalization of Sustainable Development (CIRODD), Vancouver Island University, the University of Saskatchewan, and the University of Waterloo.

The meeting was also a chance to invite the membership into initiatives designed to be more intentional about the network’s collective presence and impact. In this vein, the network thinks that the 17 Rooms process can be a critical resource for campus conversations on the SDGs. It also relaunched the Member Challenge , is starting the ‘SDG Teaching Community’ for faculty across the network, and is convening a small working group of interested members to talk about an enhanced governance structure for the network.
