  In

 our

 In

  the

 virtually

  Above

  all,

  CO VID-19 is

  r eversing

  the

  g ains

  made

  in

  and

  is pushing

  back

  the

  pos sibility

  of

  the

  Sustainable D evelopment

 Goals

 by

 at

 a

 de c ade

 if

  In

 the

 of

 all

 this

 gloom,

 urban

 offer

 a

 glimmer

 of hope

 as

 cities

 and

 agencies

 ha ve

 a

 role

 to

  turning

  this

  situation

  The

  W orld

  2020

  mak es

  the

  c ase

  that

  cities

  r emain

  c entral

  to

 Urbanization should not

 be

 at

 the expense of

 rural dev elopment. In fact,

 both

 should be

 symbiotic

 and

 mutually

 enhancing

  the

  sustainable

  development

  tr aje ctory .

  The

  Sustainabl D evelopment

  Goals,

  and

  particularly

  Goal

  r e c ognize the

  tr ansformative

  role

  that

  cities

  CO VID-19 brings

  U rbanization

  is

  es sential

  to

  the global

  efforts

  to

  build

  and

  to

  tr ansition

  to sustainable

  CO VID-19

 will

 not

 urbanization.

 The

 primal

 drive to

 c ongr eg ate

 in

 cities

 and

 towns

 in

 pursuit

 of

 aspir ations and

  a

  better

  life

  will

  c tinue.

  But

  we

  ha ve

  a

  chanc e

  to mak e

 this

 with a

  focus

  on

  The

 W orld

 Cities

 2020

 c onvincingly

 affirms that

 well-planne d,

 and

 financ e d

 cities

 and towns

  cr e ate

  e conomic,

  social,

  environmental

  and

  other unquantifiable

  leverag e d

  for

  the

  fight ag ainst

  poverty ,

  inequality ,

  unemployment,

  climate chang e

 and

 other

 pr es sing

 global

 challeng es.

 In

 is

 r eg ar d, sustainable

 urbanization

 c an

 pla y

 a

 k ey

 role

 in

 the

 D e c ade of

  Action

  to

  ac c eler ate

  gr owth

  and

  shar e d

  pr osperity

  to adv anc e

 the

 achievement

 of

 the

 SDGs by

 2030.

 Global

 agendas

 provide

 c ompr ehensive,

 multi-se ctor al and

 multi-stak eholder

 fr ameworks

 for

 unlocking

 the value

 inher ent

 to

 urbanization.

 But

 we

 ne e d

 to

 do things

 right

 by

 ensuring

 that

 cities

 ar e

 well-planne d, well-manag e d

  and

  with

  sustaine d

  financing.

  F or

  this

  to happen,

  national

  g overnments

  must

  cr e ate

  an

  enabling envir onment

  for

  cities

  to

  thrive,

  and

  loc al

  authorities must

  seize

  the

  opportunities

  given

  to

  them

  to

  flourish and

  develop.

  U rbanization

  should

  not

  be

  at

  the

  expense of

  rur al

  development.

  In

  fact,

  both

  should

  be

  symbiotic and

 mutually

 enhancing.

 The

 priv ate

 se ctor

 should

 invest in

 sustainable

 development

 proje cts,

 deploying

 innov ative ide as

 for

 affor dable

 housing,

 infr astructur e

 and

 clean technologies.

  Civil

 society

  must

  str engthen

  institutions and

  c ontribute

  with

  their

  powers

  of

  imagination

  to

  b part

  of

  this

  tr ansformative

  pr oc es s

  with

  a

  r enewe d

  sens of

 openness,

 ticipation

 and

 c ommitment.

 When

 all

 the interlocking

 parts

 operate

 in

 harmony

 and

 ar e

 supporte d by

 appropriate

 institutions

 and

 policies,

 cities

 will

 thrive and

 their

 value

 will

 be

 enhanc e d

 and

 shar e d

 by

 all;

 and

 in the

 pr oc es s,

 no

 one

 and

 no

 will

 be

 left

 behind.
