PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Context
Brazil's rapid urbanization means that around 85% of the population, or approximately 180 million people, currently live in cities.
The main problems identified for urban development in Brazil - (a) social inequality regarding urban living conditions, (b) low climate resilience of cities, and (c) implementation and impact deficits of national urban development policy - require a comprehensive paradigm shift and a corresponding transformation process.
Women and people of color (who make up half of the total population) are particularly affected by inequality and human rights problems. The social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are further exacerbating the vulnerability of poor population groups. Uncontrolled urban growth is associated with high land and resource consumption and leads to environmental pollution and a loss of ecologically valuable green spaces, natural resources, and biodiversity.
The primary objective is to overcome (1) the monosectoral orientation of national urban development policy with unused synergies or conflicting objectives between relevant urban sectors, (2) the weak operational and financial implementation framework for programs, policies, and instruments, and (3) the inadequate adaptation to different urban realities and alignment with the needs of urban target groups and climate goals.
Objective
The implementation conditions for integrated, inclusive, and climate-resilient urban development are improved.
Approach
The
