New Forms of Institutions and Governance

This video is part of Module 8: How can cities and urban areas be governed better to make them more sustainable? The growing importance of cities and local governments calls for actions geared to serving national, as well as corporate, objectives of reducing poverty, promoting broad-based growth, protecting the environment, and supporting effective institutions. Achieving these objectives requires a closer working relationship with the local governments which are assuming greater responsibilities for delivering services that have direct impacts on people's daily lives, in partnership with national governments and the communities themselves.
