Public efforts to expand green spaces help cool urban landscapes during heatwaves. And community action to reduce food waste and promote local production are key steps in transforming our food systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Building greater resilience and better protecting vulnerable populations requires far greater investments in sustainable infrastructure, early warning systems, and affordable, adequate housing for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, we must work to improve access to electricity, water, sanitation, transport, and other basic services \u2013 while investing in education, skills development, digital innovation, and entrepreneurship.<br>Local action is vital, and global cooperation indispensable.<br>On this World Habitat Day, let us pledge to build inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable human settlements for all people, everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2096\" src=\"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2096\" srcset=\"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_20220908_235307-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>United NationsSecretary-General Message United Nations Secretary-General, Mr. Ant\u00f3nio GuterresMessage for World Habitat Day This year\u2019s World Habitat Day focuses attention on \u2018Resilient Urban Economies\u2019 and the potential of cities as&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2096,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2095","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-international"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2095","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2095"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2095\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2097,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2095\/revisions\/2097"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2096"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2095"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2095"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voiceofmelange.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2095"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
