"The key role of urban
design in building sustainable, socially integrated and prosperous urban
environments.[..] can help tackle climate change. It reduces the impacts of
disaster. It can help make our cities safer, cleaner, and more equal and integrative."
Recognizing
the significance of urban basic services as a foundation for the overall social
and economic development, the UN General Assembly designated on 27 December
2013, by resolution 68/239, 31 October as World Cities Day as of 2014.
The
theme of the 2015 World Cities Day promotes togetherness and harmony, making
our cities and neighborhoods inclusive and livable.
Planned
urbanization maximizes the capacity of cities to generate employment and
wealth, and to foster diversity and social cohesion between different classes,
cultures, ethnicity and religions. Cities designed to live together create
opportunities, enable connection and interaction, and facilitate sustainable
use of shared resources.
Cities
are one of the most complex human creations. They are the places we design to
live together. An initiative for an outdoor, picnic style screening to: bring
people together, promote local talent and utilize open spaces.
The Day is expected to greatly promote the international community's interest in global urbanization, push forward cooperation among countries in meeting opportunities and addressing challenges of urbanization, and contributing to sustainable urban development around the world.
