Funding Change: The Investment Models Turning Urban Ambition into Reality
This discussion focuses on the central role of finance and investment in enabling urban transformation and supporting the progress cities need across the world. Looking at climate finance, partnership schemes, and global funding mechanisms, the session examines how these models contribute to sustainable urban development and are gaining relevance within the global urban agenda, especially where access to resources determines cities’ ability to move from ambition to implementation. Lastly, it questions how financing and investment approaches may evolve in the years ahead to address existing challenges and respond to growing priorities.
