4th Connective cities Asian dialogue event
Cities are gaining increasing importance globally, and urban actors the world over are facing similar urban development issues. Although local solutions are required, these issues are becoming increasingly relevant at the global level. While many innovative solutions for sustainable urban development exist
at local level, for example in energy efficiency, mobility or municipal services, frequently these are not widely known. Often there is a lack of systematic access to these practical solutions. The pressing challenges posed by worldwide urbanization call for efficient and innovative approaches, especially in the areas of Good Urban Governance, Integrated Urban Development, Local Economic Development
and Municipal Services – Connective Cities’ four focal themes.
Connective Cities, the International Community of Practice for Sustainable Urban Development is a joint venture between the Association of German Cities (Deutscher Städtetag), the Deutsche Gesellschaft
für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and the Service Agency Communities in One World (a division of Engagement Global gGmbH). Connective Cities is supported by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). Connective Cities provides demand-based
services designed to improve cooperation among urban practitioners at global level.
The platform enhances the sharing of good practice examples, expert knowledge and solution-oriented peer-to-peer consulting, and creates opportunities for partnerships among its stakeholders.
Connective Cities addresses questions of how to achieve sustainable development through innovative strategies and practices. It highlights good practice examples in the overarching fields of Good Urban Governance, Integrated Urban Development, Municipal Services and support of Local Economic Development Strategies. Connective Cities creates a base for knowledge sharing and the development of transformative solutions in local contexts that are customized to local requirements for sustainable urban development.
By conducting dialogue events and project workshops, Connective Cities facilitates exchange among urban practitioners on relevant themes, and functions as a platform for networking strategies among peers. To implement its strategy Connective Cities also organises trainings, study tours, virtual discussion forums and webinars. Working within Connective Cities can result in new forms of cooperation
among the actors involved. The platform also aims to facilitate the initiation of joint projects among urban stakeholders from various local settings to disseminate innovative solutions in cities.
