Vibrant Gujarat 2013, 17 October 2013

10 October 2013

 

Rapid urbanization brings with it many managerial and policy challenges like effective governance and planning, infrastructural availability, policies and sustainable development. Estimates indicate that by 2030, urbanization in India will reach to about 40%: provision for affordable housing and slum rehabilitation together with social inclusion, multi modal transport integration, land use and its efficiency are thus crucial areas to guarantee an effective model of urban development. The Indian State of Gujarat – which has seen an unprecedented upsurge in economic growth and urbanization over the last few years – has consistently converted impending challenges into opportunities.

 

“Vibrant Gujarat 2013: National Summit on Inclusive Urban Development”, taking place on 17 October 2013 in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, will showcase many of these success stories, as well as provide the latest views of national and international experts on the country’s urban development needs, and opportunities for investments with a focus on new and innovative ways to finance, design and build projects for inclusive urban development. 

 

The event, organized by the Urban Development and Urban Housing Department Government of Gujarat, in partnership with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), PwC and ICLEI South Asia, will bring together senior Government officials, policy and decision makers, development institutions, urban planners and related stakeholders to discuss sustainable urban development paradigms. During the sessions on Affordable housing, Urban planning, Multi-modal transport, Basic urban amenities, Social inclusion, Sustainable waste management, Urban governance and Municipal finance and Smart cities, participating cities attending will have the opportunity to meet other key decision makers and policy planners to comprehend the latest urban infrastructure developments in India and Gujarat, as well as access exclusive key note sessions and discussions on challenges and way forward for inclusive urban growth and development.
