Urban Development is the key responsibility of local governments and has to respond to trends and dynamics of high complexity. The fight against poverty, improving the quality of life, the management of urban growth and administrative reforms are constant challenges for urban development. Within this context, the UCLG Committee on Strategic Urban Planning, chaired by Miguel Lifschitz, Mayor of Rosario (Argentina), aims at promoting worldwide experiences related to strategic planning and urban development.
