WUF 12: Event

From data to integrated support: The making of inclusive and resilient cities.

Building inclusive and resilient cities requires not only accessible infrastructure but also care systems for children and adults with disabilities. Data is crucial for guiding investment and planning. This panel discussion will explore the types of data needed and showcase Barranquilla’s efforts in developing an integrated care and support system. With most children living in urban areas, the discussion will also address the intersection of child-friendly cities and disability-inclusive, resilient urban planning.
