Implementing Sustainable Development Goal 11 by connecting sustainability policies
and urban-planning practices through ICTs
Recommendations on STRATEGIC urban-planning PRACTICES to implement urban-sustainability POLICIES
STRATEGY Promote social inclusiveness and development
POLICY --To help globalization processes that respect cultural heritages and cultural diversity, along with
the recognition of distinct needs of various groups--
PRACTICES Policies that support innovative solutions and create a stable environment for such innovations
to take place
Recommendations on physical urban-planning interventions
Prioritise interventions in areas needing reinvention due to lack of services, transportation, housing or job offers.
Interventions should include a mixture of uses in a well-blended socio-economic fabric, to avoid ‘ghettoization’.
Built spaces should carry the right proportion of accessible green spaces and multipurpose public facilities to
allow for the accommodation of services to different cultural groups.
Recommendations on non-physical urban-planning actions
It is important to develop interventions in a PPPP (People first Public-Private Partnerships) format to ensure
future uptake at the lowest level and to help implementation.
Develop a jobs programme which can be introduced in parallel to innovative policies aimed at promoting
liveability and minimising commuting.
