dc.description.abstractHow will the world’s developing cities become vibrant—capable of meeting the climate, social, and economic challenges of tomorrow? Vibrant cities offer firms and households high expectations for good returns on investments, for a sustainable and resilient future, and for dynamic and inclusive growth. Cities thrive not only by increasing incomes and wealth for a select few but by improving common welfare through the equitable provision of basic services and opportu¬nities. To do this, tomorrow’s vibrant cities will be: 1.Resilient and low carbon—Limiting greenhouse gas emissions, reducing vulnerability to climate related hazards, and rebounding from disasters and pandemics. 2.Inclusive—Meeting basic needs for all residents, while enabling all to aspire realistically to a bet¬ter life through investment in skills and through equitable access to job opportunities. 3.Productive—Driving economic growth, creating jobs, boosting incomes, and financing critical social and infrastructure investments. The report provides new evidence, analysis, and policy insights to advance green, resilient, and inclusive urban development—drawing on the latest thinking in spatial urban development and public economics. While spotlighting the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA), it offers general insights for city and country leaders around the world. In doing so, it lays the foundations to shore up our technical assistance and policy engagements for urban development in MENA and elsewhere through a new policy framework—inform, support, and protect. en
dc.description.abstractCe rapport a été motivé par l’intérêt porté à la région MENA, une région à l’épicentre de multiples crises. Au-delà des chocs récents associés à la Covid-19 et aux turbulences des prix du pétrole, la région souffre depuis longtemps d’une croissance anémique et de résultats médiocres sur le marché du travail. La région MENA est également confrontée à une crise de l’emploi et du chômage des jeunes, et les centres urbains sont en première ligne face au changement climatique. Elle est également confrontée à une énorme demande de réformes dans le sillage du Printemps arabe, les décideurs politiques de la région tentant de trouver des réformes politiques pragmatiques pour modifier les trajectoires de croissance et d’emploi de leurs pays. Ce document s’appuie sur le récent rapport de la Banque mondiale intitulé "Convergence : Five Critical Steps Toward Integrating Lagging and Leading Areas in the Middle East and North Africa". Il explique pourquoi les villes de la région MENA ne bénéficient pas de l’agglomération, de la migration et de la spécialisation. Il identifie les causes sous-jacentes de la fragmentation spatiale, de la mobilité économique limitée des habitants et de l’isolement des économies nationales par rapport aux marchés régionaux et mondiaux. Il fournit des preuves supplémentaires des inégalités existant au sein des villes et de la mobilité intergénérationnelle dans les bidonvilles et les habitats informels. Il aborde également les questions suivantes : quand l’inégalité est-elle le résultat du processus d’urbanisation et quand est-elle le reflet systémique d’une injustice liée à l’origine et à la famille d’une personne?fr
