Efficient urban
planning!
Cities are hubs for ideas, commerce, culture, science, productivity, social
development and much more. At their best, cities have enabled people to
advance socially and economically. With the number of people living within
cities projected to rise to 5 billion people by 2030, it is important that
efficient urban planning and management practices are in place to deal
with the challenges brought by urbanization. Many challenges exist to
maintaining cities in a way that continues to create jobs and prosperity
without straining land and resources.
