Throughout October, activities, events, and discussions on urban sustainability will take place around the world. These will focus on the current challenges and opportunities facing urban areas, such as climate change, social justice, infrastructure, and quality of life. The events offer the opportunity to exchange ideas globally, discuss challenges and opportunities in cities, and strengthen international cooperation. <em>Urban October<\/em> starts with <em>World Habitat Day <\/em>at the beginning of the month and ends with World Cities Day on October 31. Each year, a global event is held in a different city to highlight current urban challenges and opportunities based on a selected urban theme.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Background to this year&#8217;s motto&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;no_stripe&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1729252920478{margin-top: 1em !important;margin-bottom: 2em !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1730371702229{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;]In cities around the world, young people make up a significant proportion of the population and their voices and engagement are crucial in shaping the future.

By actively involving young people and enabling their participation in urban development, various urban stakeholders such as the administration, politicians, civil society organizations, and the private sector can benefit from their innovative strength and commitment in order to promote sustainable development. The participation of children and young people in political decisions helps to ensure that urban strategies reflect their needs, concerns and ideas, which ultimately leads to fairer and more effective solutions.<\/p>\n<p>More information on UN-Habitat <em>Urban October<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/urbanoctober.unhabitat.org\/sites\/default\/files\/2024-07\/wcd_concept_note_2024.pdf\">here<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][stm_spacing lg_spacing=&#8221;1em&#8221; md_spacing=&#8221;1em&#8221; sm_spacing=&#8221;1em&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1730316281207{margin-top: 0em !important;margin-right: 1em !important;margin-bottom: 1em !important;margin-left: 1em !important;border-top-width: 2em !important;border-right-width: 2em !important;border-bottom-width: 2em !important;border-left-width: 2em !important;padding-top: 1em !important;padding-right: 1em !important;padding-bottom: 1em !important;padding-left: 1em !important;background-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-left-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-right-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-top-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-bottom-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}&#8221;]<em>&#8220;Change starts with each and every one of us.

Of the numerous benefits, a central pillar is empowering youth through urban agriculture policies and programs which support hands-on learning. More specifically, in addition to the many urban agriculture workshops designed to inspire and educate Quezon City&#8217;s youth, hundreds of urban farming initiatives have been constructed near schools and orphanages throughout the city, which engage students and teachers in the development and ongoing maintenance of the farm. Students begin by learning about different aspects of agriculture, such as organic farming, aqua and hydroponics, and vertical farming, and then move onto the food system&#8217;s link to ecological systems, and the importance of conserving biodiversity, regenerating environmental systems, and implementing circular city approaches. Quickly, by observing the substantial positive impacts urban agriculture is making in Quezon City, students begin to realize how interconnected social and environmental systems are, and the ability of small changes to foster big impacts.[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery images=&#8221;12996,12998,13000,13002,12994&#8243; img_size=&#8221;300&#215;270&#8243;][vc_column_text]Click the photos to view the descriptions!<\/p>\n<p>Photos: \u00a9 James Vandenberg[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1730317874831{margin-top: 1em !important;margin-right: 1em !important;margin-bottom: 1em !important;margin-left: 1em !important;border-top-width: 2em !important;border-right-width: 2em !important;border-bottom-width: 2em !important;border-left-width: 2em !important;padding-top: 1em !important;padding-right: 1em !important;padding-bottom: 1em !important;padding-left: 1em !important;background-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-left-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-right-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-top-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-bottom-color: #c5d3c6 !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}&#8221;]<em>&#8220;Children and young people already have a lot of great ideas on how to improve the city and how to address climate change.
