World Forum on Cities and Quality of Life – Geneva, 18-20 May 2006 18-05-2006 Introduction Geneva, as an ICLEI member city, will lead the World Forum on Cities and
Quality of Life, The World Forum is aimed at assessing global challenges and
promoting local solutions. It seeks to encourage debate as to what are the
criteria for quality of urban lives and how can multiple actors collaborate to
achieve those aims.
Description
Today, as the world population is becoming mostly urban, looking at quality
of life in the city is one of the defining issues of our times. At once a
laboratory for social integration and multiculturalism, a place of expression of
the diversity of individual desires, and a place for the edification of our
common future: the city spans the great challenges of our times.
The Geneva Forum will be the occasion to tackle these questions, shed light
on new urban practices, and draw out the priorities of local actors through
concrete examples.
