The 2014 Nexus Conference (3-7 March)
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Jacob Scherr asks, “Could 2014 be the year that global aspirations and local actions are united?”
That’s one of the hopes for the meetings this week at the United Nations in New York of the Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals, a UN body deliberating on a universal set of goals to replace the expiring Millennium Development Goals in 2015. This week’s meetings will focus on the local actions cities can take—and are already taking—to end extreme poverty, improve human well-being, and assure a livable planet. Some of cities’ biggest challenges in the future will be on the agenda: improving transportation, dealing with mountains of waste, and preparing for climate-induced natural disasters like rising seas.
