At UN-Habitat India, we are committed to creating sustainable and inclusive urban environments that improve the quality of life for all citizens. With a rapidly urbanizing population, India faces unique challenges and opportunities in urban development. Our mission is to support the Government of India and local authorities in addressing these challenges and achieving sustainable urbanization.
Our Focus Areas:
- Housing and Shelter: We work towards ensuring adequate and affordable housing for all. Our initiatives focus on improving housing conditions, promoting sustainable housing solutions, and providing support for slum rehabilitation and affordable housing projects.
- Urban Planning and Design: Effective urban planning is essential for creating livable and resilient cities. We collaborate with urban planners, architects, and policymakers to develop sustainable urban plans and designs that promote accessibility, safety, and environmental sustainability.
- Infrastructure Development: Infrastructure plays a crucial role in urban development. We support the development of essential infrastructure such as water supply, sanitation, transportation, and energy systems to enhance urban livability and meet the needs of growing urban populations.
- Community Empowerment: We believe in the power of communities to drive positive change. Our community engagement programs empower residents to participate in decision-making processes, improve local governance, and foster social cohesion.
- Climate Change Resilience: Climate change poses significant challenges to cities. We work on climate change adaptation and resilience strategies to help cities mitigate risks, enhance disaster preparedness, and promote sustainable environmental practices.
