We are compiling a list of indices about cities.🏙📈Help us by telling us in the comments any city indices you know about. 👇
The latest article in the Public Spaces for Children series features UN-Habitat’s Global Public Space Program. It provides information on tools, actions, and networks that you can use to liven up public spaces for children in your city. Read it here➡ cities4children.org/blog/catalytic…
Every year, 1 million children globally are killed by unintentional injuries. Children in slums are at high risk due to challenging living conditions and limited healthcare services. How can we make cities safer for children? ➡cities4children.org/knowledgebase/… #WorldHealthDay
“What campaigners would like to see come out of this fiasco is a cross-departmental approach to consider children’s needs in every area of public life…led by a cabinet level minister for children”. Yes we would! theguardian.com/society/commen…
The expected years of schooling in some countries would increase by as much as 28%. Globally, as many as 41.6 million additional children & young people could be enrolled in #education. This is equivalent to 16.1% of the total number of children currently missing education.
The benefits of investing in #InformalSettlements extend far beyond their residents. By improving housing conditions, we can create more equitable and resilient cities that benefit everyone. Find out more at @Habitat_org. --> habitat.org/home-equals #HomeEquals
Cities and countries become more equal and resilient when housing is improved in informal settlements. Everyone deserves an affordable, structurally sound home with secure tenure. Let's work towards equitable access to adequate housing. #HomeEquals #LeaveNoOneBehind
One billion people worldwide - 1 in 4 urban residents - live in informal settlements. Improving their #housing conditions is not only a human rights imperative, but also generates positive impacts for income, health and education conditions for the whole society. #HomeEquals
A child-centred nation is “one where governments take action on their duty of care for children, fully enabling the right to play, so a child can simply be a child.” - Liz Ebengo, with @compassionuk for @theRSAorg thersa.org/rsa-journal/20…
"Children & their games, their scooters, their chalks & bouncing balls have vanished, replaced by speeding traffic & parked cars. And in losing doorstep play, children have lost the hours of exploration physical activity that nature designed them to seek out in order to thrive"

Public spaces form a vital part of our built environment and communities. Inclusive and accessible spaces offer independence, respect and dignity, safety and enjoyability and make the cities we live in better for everyone.

A groundbreaking report from @Habitat_org and @IIED shows that adequate housing is an infrastructure for well-being and sustainability, with direct benefits for the residents of informal settlements, and broader society, in relation to living standards, health and education. 🏘️

One billion people worldwide - 1 in 4 urban residents - live in informal settlements. Improving their #housing conditions is not only a human rights imperative, but also generates positive impacts for income, health and education conditions for the whole society. #HomeEquals
