I'm thrilled to share the latest collaboration between The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP) and UN-Habitat, a vital resource for decision-makers eager to delve into the Asia-Pacific cities landscape. This report provides an updated, reliable insight into the trends, challenges, and future opportunities in the region, all for the benefit of its 2.48 billion urban dwellers.
