EAST ASIA LAUNCHURBANIZATIONKNOWLEDGE PLATFORM

WB-KRIHSURBANIZATION KNOWLEDGE PLATFORM

Launching Seminar

Land, Markets, Infrastructure and Spatial Planning:

Promoting Sustainable and Competitive Cities

Date _ June 30th - July 1st, 2011

Venue _ COEX(June 30th) / KRIHS(July 1st)



East Asian cities face unprecedented urbanization. How well cities respond to

these challenges in a sustainable, equitable and competitive manner will largelydepend on how they manage their land, markets, infrastructure and spatial

planning. It is with great pleasure that we invite you to our two-day knowledge

exchange on these topics on June 30th to July 1st, 2011, jointly organized by the

World Bank and our partners at KRIHS(Korea Research Institute for Human

Settlements).

The event represents the East Asia Launch of the Urbanization Knowledge

Platform, which is an initiative that aims to put the world’s best urban

knowledge and data in the hands of policy-makers and practitioners to harness

urbanization for better development outcomes. A primary objective of the

knowledge exchange is to develop cross-national partnerships and encourage

peer-to-peer learning regarding urbanization issues. Participants are invited to

share their experience and practical understanding with fellow policy-makers,

which then can be applied to their cities. Additionally, the event seeks to foster

the formation of a community of practice on land use planning and urban

management, which shall continue to evolve using the Urbanization

Knowledge Platform. A regional videoconference with broad participation from

stakeholders in East Asia will close the workshop and enable dissemination of

the lessons learned.

We are thrilled to have you join this event, together with leading experts, such

as Professor Edward Glaeser of Harvard University, Professor Masahisa Fujita

of Kyoto University, Professor David Dowall of University of California,

Berkeley, and Roberto Chavez of MIT’s Incremental Housing Network. The

roundtable will include participants from China, Indonesia, Korea, Lao,

Mongolia, Philippines, and Vietnam. We are looking forward to your presence

and contribution.
