"Svyam Bane Gopal" (which is a Partner, Member, Stakeholder of many United Nations’ ventures) will organize an workshop to explore practical, community-led approaches to building inclusive, sustainable, and climate-resilient cities, aligned with World Cities Day 2026 and its theme, “Regenerating the City: Adequate Housing for All. The workshop will bring together community members, urban stakeholders, development practitioners, and interested participants to discuss how artificial intelligence (AI), digital technologies, environmental conservation, and citizen participation can contribute to better urban planning and neighbourhood regeneration. Key activities will include discussions on affordable and adequate housing, inclusive development, the improvement of existing neighbourhoods, disaster risk reduction, urban green spaces, sustainable resource management, and technology-enabled public services. Participants will explore ways to ensure that urban improvements benefit existing residents, including vulnerable communities, while reducing displacement risks and strengthening community resilience. The workshop will encourage practical ideas, collaborative problem-solving, and partnerships among citizens, civil society, local authorities, and other stakeholders. Its intended outcome is a set of actionable recommendations for people-centred urban regeneration that integrates social inclusion, environmental sustainability, digital innovation, and equitable access to adequate housing, contributing to Sustainable Development Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities.
