SDG 11.3 has the purpose of generating conversation and action to increase inclusive and sustainable urbanization and the capacity for participatory, integrated, and sustainable planning and management of human settlements in all countries.

How are cities driving action for sustainable urbanization? What can we learn from each other? How can we influence others to act in our collective best interests? And how is COVID-19 influencing how the world must adapt?
