Similar Between Essentialism And Perennialism

AGENDA 21

Unquestionably, urban mobility has become a global challenge. The following reflects the dimensions that it includes in terms of social and economic development and its relation to the future humanity is definitely a megantendencia. The agenda is raised by Dr. Wolfgang Schuster, president of the Urban Mobility Commission

One of the core responsibilities of the cities is to build traffic in our cities. To solve this task even better, the organization United Cities and Local Governments (United Cities and Local Governments, UCLG) decided to set up a Committee for Urban Mobility. " By

Agenda for Urban Mobility 21, the committee aims to develop sustainable mobility for our community. With the help of partners we want to implement the tasks and measures to involve them achieve these objectives. Fundamentals



The basis for the work of the Urban Mobility of the awareness that

1. all human beings have the same right to mobility because they are the same base for a concrete realization of most other fundamental rights;

2. the eight Millennium Development Goals United Nations can only be achieved if people have adequate access and payable to mobility services;

3. urban mobility plays a fundamental role in achieving a positive development in the economic, social, ecological and cultural development of a municipality and a town;

4. urban transport systems in many poorer countries do not yet meet the requirements for providing safe, healthy, socially and ecologically compatible men benefits of mobility and, therefore, constitute an obstacle to development;

5. current transport systems, especially the extensive use of private cars in most cities in industrialized countries are not sustainable due to their high consumption of nonrenewable resources and the high level of emissions;

6. There is an increasing problem among the one hand, the mobility needs of urban population is growing strongly and anticipated shortages and rising of fossil energy resources, on the other hand,

7. need to develop new ways with new propellants and carriers of energy for increased mobility in line with social needs, environmental and economic;

8. alternative non-fossil fuels contribute only to find sustainable solutions when not in competition with the objectives aimed at the conservation of tropical forests and ensure regional food production;

9. sustainable patterns of mobility in cities around the world are based on the one hand, the optimized use of all technological, organizational and planning, but, moreover, also depend on a sustainable culture of mobility on the part of those involved in trafficking;

10. city \u200b\u200bcooperation in the framework of the UCLG activities can contribute to a faster dissemination of exemplary solutions, more sustainable and therefore more justice in the "One World."
