正文(英文) | Bogota, 18 March 2021 - The first webinar of a series dubbed “Joint Roadmap Conversation” was held in Bogota early this week. The event - organized jointly by UN-Habitat and the Mayor's Office of the city of Bogotá - initiated a series of three virtual talks that will be held to share experiences and international success stories regarding fundamental transformative dimensions for cities of the present and the future, in line with the approaches of the New Urban Agenda of the United Nations. The Mayor of Bogotá, Mrs. Claudia López opened the meeting and spoke about the Green Corridor Project, an initiative that aims to intervene on Carrera Septima - one of the most iconic avenues in the city of Bogotá and expected to positively impact the quality of life of all citizens. The Mayor stressed the importance that this development shall take place within the standard proposed in The New Urban Agenda. Elkin Velázquez - UN-Habitat’s regional director for Latin America and the Caribbean - highlighted the relevance of having these technical conversations at the local level, to show that in practice, progress can be made with innovation, political commitment and method. Likewise, Velázquez framed his speech with a message of hope for Bogotá and the entire region urging to advance actions at all levels adapting effective urban solutions to the different contexts that we live in today. Eduardo López, Director of Research and Capacities at UN Habitat’s headquarters in Nairobi, spoke about the importance of rethinking societal interactions and highlighted the need to achieve a revolution of empathy, which restores the sense of place that has been lost. After these introductions, Diego Sánchez - director of the IDU - presented the Bogota’ Green Corridor Project. During this presentation he highlighted the main aspects of the Green Corridor of Carrera Séptima, which is designed to contribute to environmental harmony, improve sustainable mobility, and strengthen a sense of belonging in a quality urban space. |
