Nairobi: The New Urban Agenda and Stories of Change
This Jane Jacobs Urban Walk, coordinated by the Habitat III Secretariat and UN-Habitat with local partners, will highlight the participatory planning activities of different groups in their communities. The New Urban Agenda underscores the necessity of involving key constituencies and communities in the planning and development of urban areas, and Nairobi offers rich examples of bottom-up change in diverse areas. The walk will explore three areas of Nairobi and how its residents are working to improve its urban spaces to be centered on its inhabitants.
