00:00Nós trabalhamos o Fórum, técnico e politicamente.
00:06Nós estamos capazes de apresentar soluções concreta
00:11e já desenvolvermos uma roadmap.
00:18Organizado por U.N. Habitat,
00:20o World Urban Forum serve como plataforma global
00:23onde cidades e países possam compartilhar conhecimento,
00:26experiências e projetos inovadoras para o desenvolvimento urbano.
00:29Aplausos a nova agenda urbana que deve ser revisada
00:32na U.N. headquarters em julho.
00:35Nós estamos capazes de desenvolver uma estrutura do Fórum
00:39que apresenta direto ao nosso plano estratégico.
00:42Isso significa que para a U.N. Habitat,
00:45todos os inscritos de aqui,
00:46nós podemos fazer uma acção imediatamente
00:49enquanto implementamos nosso plano estratégico para o 2629.
00:53Intensas conversas e debates têm levado a novas relações,
00:56compartilhadas boas práticas,
00:57mas também entendendo essas leis das aprendidas.
01:00A sustentabilidade e equidade
01:02estão no coração da conferência,
01:04mas a positividade e esperança estão no callão.
01:07As you can see, 300 different partner-level events,
01:11sessions and conferences have been organized,
01:14along with the expos of the countries.
01:16They provided their concept of urban development and city development and interaction.
01:21I think that at this stage we are learning from one another.
01:24It is one of the important legacies from our cultures,
01:27from our urban agendas and from our ambitions for the development.
01:31The road to WUF 13 in Baku began during the handover from WUF 12 in Cairo.
01:36It has resulted in over 57,000 participants from 176 countries,
01:41making it the largest addition to date and hosted over 150 ministers and deputy ministers.
01:47Being hosted here in Baku,
01:50that's a very important signal at the global level that our cities in this region are leading,
01:57are bringing very important examples to other partners from Africa,
02:02from Latin America, from the Middle East Arab states,
02:06on how urbanization could be tackled,
02:09how the local climate action could be responded to.
02:13So, therefore, that's a very important and timely forum.
02:16Hosting the forum requires extensive preparation.
02:19Organization to manage thousands of people at the venue
02:22was at the forefront of the construction stage and venue managers' plans,
02:26and the Urban Expo was an area where all nations were represented.
02:30Urban Expo is a 35,000 square meters area
02:33when it looks like an open square city, city square,
02:40when dynamic, modular, highly interactive.
02:43All the people, when it's going inside, like to interact inside this space,
02:47when the countries, companies, international organizations,
02:51businesses, academias from all over the world.
02:55Architecture of the venue was also a huge consideration,
02:58with careful thought and planning central to the decision-making.
03:01For me, functionality and workability comes first, rather than visual design,
03:07and that's why it affected in every decision we made.
03:11For example, at the planning stage, planning of the circulation and operational efficiency.
03:17After solving this planning stage of the design, we focused on the visual side of it,
03:22so it's well-balanced and it's well-composed and looks clear from the outside.
03:28From thematic strands and expert dialogues to new initiatives,
03:32the 13th session of the World Urban Forum here in Baku
03:36was designed to foster collaboration and exchange practical ideas.
03:40It brought together policy-makers, planners and urban specialists from across the globe
03:45to scrutinize the complex challenges facing cities today.
03:50Convened by UN Habitat and co-hosted by the government of Azerbaijan,
03:55WUF 13 featured more than 580 sessions and an urban expo that recorded over 74,000 visits,
04:02an incredible achievement.
04:03But now it's time to hand over the baton for the 14th session of the World Urban Forum,
04:08which will take place in 2028.
04:11The destination? Mexico City.
04:14I also came to see how this forum was,
04:20to provide the best conditions in the city of Mexico,
04:25and that we can go ahead with a forum that has very good coordination,
04:31that the participants can be taken advantage of.
04:37Because, look, here came representatives from the whole world.
04:42They crossed oceans.
04:43For Azerbaijan, there's no doubt that the privilege of hosting a world-class event
04:48will change how we live in the future.
04:50It's a chapter that's not ended.
04:52In fact, it appears to be the beginning of an exciting new era.
