The City

We live in an increasingly urban, increasingly unequal world. This is nowhere more evident than in cities of the global South, where many residents face deep injustices in their ability to access vital services, participate in decision-making or to have their rights recognised as citizens. In this regard, the rallying cry of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ‘leave no one behind’ offers significant potential to guide urbanisation processes towards more equitable outcomes, particularly for the urban poor. Yet the SDGs have also faced a series of criticisms which have highlighted the gaps and silences in moving towards a transformative agenda. This article explores the potentials of adopting a relational lens to read the SDGs, as a mechanism to navigate these internal contradictions and critiques and build pathways to urban equality. In particular, it offers three questions if we want to place urban equality at the heart of the agenda: who owns the city; who produces knowledge about the city; and who is visible in the city? Drawing from the practices of organised groups of the urban poor, this article outlines the key lessons for orienting this agenda towards the relational and transformative aims of urban equality.

Urban resilience is increasingly seen as essential to managing the risks and challenges arising in a globally changing, connected, and urbanized world. Hence, cities are central to achieving a range of global development policy commitments adopted over the past few years, ranging from the Paris Climate Agreement to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, knowledge of the ways in which cities are going about implementing resilience or of how such efforts can practically contribute to the implementation of global agendas is still limited. This paper discusses the experience of cities that were members of the 100 Resilient Cities (100RC) network, an entity pioneered by The Rockefeller Foundation. It reviews the resilience strategies developed by 100RC members to show that 100RC cities are increasingly aligning their resilience work to global development policies such as the SDGs. It then draws on the case of the city of Cape Town in South Africa to illustrate the process of developing a resilience strategy through 100RC tools and methodologies including the City Resilience Framework (CRF) and City Resilience Index (CRI) and its alignment to the SDGs and reflects on lessons and learnings of Cape Town’s experience for the global city network-policy nexus post-2015.

The City

Manila is a primate city with national and international significance. Unlike any other city in the Philippines, Manila has the mandate of serving not just its local constituents, but also a clientele of national and even global scale. Recognizing that the localization of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at sub-national levels is a key element in meeting the targets by 2030, it is important to look at how cities have been confronting local challenges relating to the development goals. Focusing on SDGs 3, 4 and 11, this city profile shows that Manila has performed reasonably well against key national and regional benchmarks on health, education and urban sustainability. However, as the city continues to lag behind many of its regional counterparts, key reforms must be undertaken in the areas of local policymaking, targeting of resources, scale of public participation and engagement of national government agencies. Heading into the first four years of the SDGs, the aim of this profile is to recognize and contextualize Manila’s existing urban conditions, best practices and pressing challenges—which would all have a significant implication on how Manila stands to attain SDGs 3, 4 and 11.

A mixed inductiveanalyticalmethod was used, by source of documentary data collection. It was found that the city shouldprioritize interventions focused on property sanitation and land formalization. In addition, that with respect tothe physical- environmental and social-cultural dimensions, it is necessary to establish mechanisms for urbanplanning and management in response to the Sustainable Development Goals proposed for Latin Americancities by the United Nations and contemplated in the agenda. 2030 for sustainable development.

Insight Into

Cities are engines of socio-economic development. This article examines and provides insight into the extent of localisation of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) using the City of Bulawayo (CoB), in Zimbabwe, as the case study. The key question posited is ‘Does Bulawayo demonstrate potential for sustainable development?’. Bulawayo is a strange case study as in the period of the Millennium Development Goals Zimbabwe had a massive increase in death rates from 2000 to 2010 due to the HIV pandemic, political chaos and economic disintegration of that period. Coming out of that period there was little to help cities like Bulawayo grasp the opportunity for an SDG-based development focus. However, after the paper creates a multi-criteria framework from a Systematic Literature Review on the localisation of the SDG agenda, the application to Bulawayo now generates hope. The city is emerging from the collapse of the city’s public transport and water distribution systems, once the envy of and benchmark for many local authorities in the country, and has detailed SDG plans for the future. Bulawayo now serves as a planning model for localisation of sustainable development goals.

Raising public awareness of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a critical prerequisite for their implementation. However, little is known about attitude formation among the public toward SDGs at the national level. We explored this topic in China, a country that has emerged as a leading world economy with strong transformational imperatives to work toward sustainable development. Following Chaiken’s heuristic–systematic model and using data from an online survey with 4128 valid respondents, this study investigated the factors that affect public support for SDGs and explains how individuals form supportive attitudes. Our empirical evidence showed that in China, first, public support is mainly shaped by demographic attributes (gender, age, and educational attainment), value predispositions (e.g., altruistic values and anthropocentric worldviews), and the level of SDG-relevant knowledge. Second, an interaction effect exists between value predispositions and knowledge among the public concerning support for SDGs. Third, the Chinese public views the implementation of SDGs as a part of development policy rather than environmental policy. This study provides empirical findings on the factors that account for public attitudes toward SDGs, outlining some useful implications for designing policy tools that would bolster SDG action.

Replacing traditional products with green products has become a key way to achieve decoupling between economic development and environmental pollution. As an incentive mechanism, subsidies can be provided by a government to facilitate the popularization and acceptance of green products. Subsidies play a significant role in encouraging the development of green products. We explored the proper optimal subsidy mechanism for green products from the angle of maximizing the net policy return, which cannot only encourage the development of green products but also do not aggravate financial burden for the government. In order to explore the optimal subsidy level for green products from the perspective of net policy benefit maximization, this paper established the optimal subsidy principal-agent models and a numerical example was presented to verify the effectiveness of the model we constructed. The results show that improving investors’ preference and eliminating asymmetric information contribute to reduce subsidy cost savings. Additionally, improving consumer environmental awareness, promoting the development and application of green technology, and reducing market risk reduce subsidy costs. This article provides policymakers with an effective subsidy scheme to accelerate the development of green products and achieve sustainable development goals.

Development Goals

One of the 17 frameworks for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) program is about healthy life and encouraging prosperity for all ages. The Indonesian government, within the framework of SDGs targeting NMR, can decrease to 12 deaths per 1000 births. The existence of an incubator as a premature baby warmer device is essential. But such health facilities in the area are still lacking. The Grashof Portable Home Inkubator, one of the innovations from Universitas Indonesia, was lent free of charge as one of the product-based community engagement activities from 2012 to the present. It was lent freely to the mother's baby's home from the lower-class community. The network of volunteer agents is at the forefront of implementing this activity in many locations in Indonesia. The volunteer agents replace the primary cost production of the incubator so the problem of funds can be overcome. Socialization and collaboration with all levels of society, both individuals and institutions, is carried out so that more premature babies can be helped. From 2012 until now, this activity has helped more than 3000 babies carried out by volunteer agents who already exist in 22 provinces spread over 103 locations. This activity has increased to community empowerment, which directs or indirectly helps government programs in reducing infant mortality. Public awareness to help others, especially poor people, can make life's welfare betterABSTRAK:Salah satu dari 17 kerangka kerja program Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adalah tentang kehidupan yang sehat dan mendorong kesejahteraan bagi semua orang di segala usia. Pemerintah Indonesia dalam kerangka SDGs menargetkan angka kematian bayi / neonatal (AKB/AKN) turun menjadi 12 kematian per 1000 kelahiran. Keberadaan inkubator sebagai alat penghangat bayi prematur sangatlah penting. Namun fasilitas kesehatan seperti itu di daerah tersebut masih kurang. Inkubator Grashof Portabel yang merupakan salah satu produk inovasi dari Universitas Indonesia ini dipinjamkan secara cuma-cuma sebagai salah satu kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat berbasis produk dari tahun 2012 hingga saat ini. Inkubator dipinjamkan secara gratis ke rumah orangtua bayi dari golongan pra-sejahtera. Jejaring relawan menjadi garda terdepan dalam pelaksanaan kegiatan ini di banyak lokasi di Indonesia. Agen relawan mengganti biaya pokok produksi inkubator sehingga masalah dana bisa teratasi. Sosialisasi dan kerjasama dengan seluruh lapisan masyarakat baik individu maupun institusi dilakukan agar lebih banyak bayi prematur yang dapat tertolong. Sejak tahun 2012 hingga saat ini kegiatan ini telah membantu lebih dari 3000 bayi yang dilaksanakan oleh agen relawan yang sudah ada di 22 provinsi yang tersebar di 103 lokasi. Kegiatan ini meningkat menjadi pemberdayaan masyarakat, yang secara langsung maupun tidak langsung membantu program pemerintah dalam menurunkan angka kematian bayi. Kesadaran masyarakat untuk membantu sesama, terutama masyarakat pra-sejahtera dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan hidup lebih baik.
