This paper highlights research findings and case studies that support the advancement in green transport, and how cities can increase employment opportunities by investing in sustainable transport and mobility systems. Case studies include examples from public transport and the cycling industry in India and the United States.
This paper looks at ways cities can rethink urban mobility systems post-pandemic, putting people at the centre of transport and street planning.
The report features how strategic spatial planning can be used to gain new insights of opportunities and constraints for mining-dependent regions and to develop multi-sectoral development plans for resilient and sustainable economies.
This case study illustrates Guiding Principle 1: Strategic Planning and is part of a series of ten case studies which aim to inform the forthcoming wave of global infrastructure investment. Collectively, they specify and demonstrate how environmental, social and economic sustainability must be integrated right across infrastructure policymaking at the systems-level. The individual principles and case studies were developed via ongoing global consultation and inputs from experts and UN Member States, as part of implementation of the UN Environment Assembly (UNEA) Resolution 4/5 on Sustainable Infrastructure.
