Cities Network Campaign welcomes you

to the South Asian Cities Summit 2013!

By the middle of this century, the worlds urban population will likely have doubled to reach 7 billion people.
In Asia alone, cities are projected to reach 2.5 billion people by 2025. The scale and pace of urbanization is
unprecedented and its impact will be felt in all spheres on human life. Quite simply, this will be one of the
dening features of the 21st century.
This urban world comes with a complex set of environmental, economic and social
challenges, but also represents a unique opportunity to build more
sustainable, vibrant, innovative and equitable communities.
Finding solutions for a better urban future involves developing new forms of collaboration and
partnerships. Inspired by the possibilities of this new urban era, and driven by the philosophy of
Connecting Cities. Building Knowledge, the Cities Network Campaign (in association with
Department of Environment Government of NCT of Delhi, All India Institute of Local Self
Government (AIILSG), WRI India and UNESCO) is organising the South Asian Cities
Summit 2013 on 17
