What does successful #SDGLocalization actually look like?
For Amr Lashin @A_Lashin1, Governor of Aswan 🇪🇬, #SDGLocalization and housing go hand in hand.
He highlights that the success of localization should be measured by how much cities are able to improve quality of life for communities, including through access to affordable housing. 🏙️
