The Need for an Urban World “Massive urbanization is the only way the world can survive the massive population increase. Urban areas offer a higher life expectancy and lower absolute poverty, and can provide essential services more cheaply and on a larger scale than rural areas. The problem has never been that cities are worse places to live - they are in fact much better for the poor - the problem is that cities have more and more people living in them and relying on their services. ” - Dr. Mathias Hundsalz, coordinator of the United Nations Habitat Report 30
