Abstract:

The Policy Paper was one of 12 Policy Papers that informed and led to Habitat III’s New Urban Agenda, the hallmark declaration adopted at the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) in Quito, Ecuador, on 20 October 2016. ‘The New Urban Agenda represents a shared vision for a better and more sustainable future.’ It proposes that ‘well-planned and well-managed urbanization can be a powerful tool for sustainable development for both developing and developed countries.’ (https://habitat3.org/the-new-urban-agenda/) “The Habitat III Policy Papers … served as official inputs to the Habitat III process and were a key part of the formulation of the Zero Draft of the New Urban Agenda. They are also part of the Habitat III legacy and a valuable resource of information and knowledge that various urban actors may find useful in their work on housing and sustainable urban development.” (https://habitat3.org/documents-and-archive/preparatory-documents/policy-papers/) All policy papers were prepared by international experts, selected from long lists of applicants. The experts’ responsibility was: “Research and data on sustainable urban development as basis for the preparation of the Policy Papers. Policy Units co-leaders and experts presented their recommendations at Open-Ended Informal Consultative Meetings as final interventions prior to the intergovernmental negotiations.” (https://uploads.habitat3.org/hb3/Habitat%20III%20Policy%20Paper%208.pdf, p13) The Urban Ecology and Resilience paper had over 500 applications from experts around the world. Bryant was invited to be one of 20 experts. Bryant was elected lead co-author of the experts in the Policy paper’s preparation. (See p19 of link) Bryant was a panellist at the NGO and Government agency debates conducted around the world after the issue of the draft research paper. The Policy Paper developed research for policy design through transformative actions. The output enables implementation and monitoring for a diverse range of institutional contexts.
