Local and Regional Governments as Key Actors in Advancing Human Rights and the SDGs

Salle XXII, Palais des Nations, Geneva
This side event will explore how LRGs can be further recognized and empowered as key human rights actors, building on recent Human Rights Council (HRC) resolutions, particularly HRC Resolution 57/12 on Local Government and Human Rights and HRC Resolution 51/33 on National Mechanisms for Implementation, Reporting, and Follow-up (NMIRFs). It will also reflect on insights from the Bologna Expert Roundtable on Data Planning and Collection by NMIRFs: the Role of LRGs, which underscored the need for greater policy coherence between local, national, and international human rights frameworks.

Upon invitation only
On 21 February 2025, the Global Cities Hub co-organizes with UN-Habitat the workshop “Cities and Human security: Urbanisation and Housing in an unstable world”.

A key focus of the discussions will be on underrepresented issues, such as the involvement of organised crime in housing and land-related crimes amid rapid urbanisation, as well as the effects of illicit economies on social cohesion and urban governance.
