Summary

Professionals from more than 24 built environment international associations will gather at this roundtable convened by the Habitat Professional Forum. The event will be an interactive conversation to inform and engage audiences on four strategic topics discussed through the lens of WUF11’s key dialogue themes. Conclusions from these discussions will inform the next work plan of the Habitat Professional Forum and its efforts to mobilize professionals globally towards sustainable urban development.

Guiding Questions for discussions

  1. How can professionals contribute to a just and restorative pandemic recovery?
  2. How can professionals reinforce urban action to accelerate SDGs achievement through the NUA?
  3. How can professionals better foster engagement in SDGs localization through partnerships with local governments?
  4. How can professionals improve their own approaches to provide better professional community fit for purpose globally?
