[청년세션]평화롭고 포용적인 내일의 도시 개발 [YOUTH SESSION]Shaping Peaceful and Inclusive Cities of Tomorrow |
Yeongju B |
미래의 도시가 ‘모두’에게 더 나은 삶의 기회를 제공하도록 하기 위해서는, 포용적인 도시의 개념을 이해하고, 지속가능성을 고려하는 것이 필수적이다. 이에, UNITAR 제주국제연수센터는 제19회 청년워크숍을 통해, 미래를 이끌어 갈 청년들이 도시가 초래하는 불평등과 문제에 대해 배우고, 인간 중심의 해결책을 직접 기획하는 기회를 제공하였다. 본 세션은 청년들의 혁신적인 아이디어를 분석하여, 공존과 평화의 도시를 형성하기 위해 앞으로 나아가야 하는 방향을 논의하고자 한다. Urbanization has been one of the most significant driving forces of recent global development. But while urbanization is moving the global economy forward, rising inequality and exclusion within cities may derail development progress. Poorly planned urbanization has resulted in economic disorder, civil unrest, congestion, and environmental degradation. Also, it often leaves the vulnerable population such as women, children and persons with disabilities (PWD), to face barriers to participation in society and quality of life, ranging from having to face discrimination, violence, or limited access to infrastructure and basic public services. To make sure that tomorrow’s cities provide opportunities and better living conditions for all, it is essential to understand the concept of inclusive cities and shape them to attain long-term sustainability. In this regard, UNITAR CIFAL Jeju, through its 19th Youth Workshop, invited our future leaders, the youth to learn about inequalities and challenges in current cities and design their own solutions to create a mindful and people-centered city. This session will explore some of the most innovative ideas by the youth and discuss the way forward for shaping cities of coexistence and peace. |
