Peaceful and resilient cities are only possible when everyone is included. 🤝
Persons with disabilities must help shape emergency preparedness, response, and recovery efforts - before, during, and after crises.♿️🌍
#InclusiveCitiesBenefitAll#LivingTogetherInPeace
Inclusive cities start with local action. 🏙️
In #Bishkek, UNECE is supporting accessibility in public spaces, services & transport - making cities work better for persons with disabilities and everyone.
#InclusiveCitiesBenefitAll#UrbanInclusion#SDG11
🌍At #RFSD, the #SDG11 Round Table highlighted a critical moment: with 2030 approaching, cities face rising pressures - from climate change to economic and geopolitical instability.
📍The path forward: align planning, financing & policy to scale lasting impact.
#LocalAction
UNECE-UN-Habitat Round Table on #SDG11:
💬 Mayor Eckart Würzner: Delivering the #SDGs requires strong political commitment, real cooperation & aligned long-term strategies across all levels.
📍 The discussion continues at the 6th meeting of the UN Forum of Mayors
🗓 12–13 Oct
A key reminder: health systems that exclude persons with disabilities deepen inequities. Barriers in access, design, and communication limit care and outcomes.
Inclusive systems - shaped with persons with disabilities - are more accessible, effective and equitable for all.🏥🏙️🤝
