Integrated Resource Management as a

means of implementing the SDGs and the New Urban Agenda

Urban Speakers Corner at PrepCom 3

and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP)

SDGs and the New Urban Agenda

2015 saw the adoption of a number of landmark

global agendas, goals and commitments that will

shape development efforts for the next 15 years+,

notably the SDGs, AAAA, Paris Agreement, Sendai

Framework

2/3rd of the SDGs are in some way reliant on

implementation at the local level.

Habitat III in October this year will further adopt a

New Urban Agenda for the next 20 years

Implementation will fundamentally depend upon

what happens in cities in relation to their resources

2

Regional Context & Realities

In 2018 more people will live in cities than in rural areas

By 2050 two-thirds of region will live in cities: 3.2 billion

Essential transformations:

• from quantity to quality

• from exploitation to investment

Urban Nexus was explicitly captured in the

APUF-6 Jakarta Call-for-Action:

Meeting current and future natural resource demands in

cities, in particular for energy, water and food, as well as

housing and basic services, requires the adoption of a nexus

approach and a shift from sectoral to integrated and ecosystem-

based planning. It also requires a shift from competitive to

collaborative governance among neighboring municipalities and

across departments, including financing mechanisms.

3

To integrate systems, services, policies or operational ‘silos’, and jurisdictions, to

achieve water-food-energy security in cities and multiple urban policy objectives,

and to deliver greater benefits with equal/less resources and minimizing negative

trade-offs

Enabling factors – integrated approaches, STI, partnerships, collaborative

governance, coherent policy

Conceptualizing Urban Nexus

4

Inter-linkages of Urban Nexus with regional & global agendas

Broadly addresses Goal 1, Goal 2, Goal 3, Goal 6, Goal 7, Goal 8,

Goal 9, Goal 11, Goal 12, Goal 13, Goal 17

Direct linkages of Nexus to the SDGs targets, including:

8.4 – to improve global resource efficiency in consumption and production

12.2 – call for the sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources

11.a – addresses integrated planning across urban and rural boundaries in terms of

resource planning and use

11.b – in adopting and implementing integrated policies and plans towards resource

efficiency

In particular # 109 – promote coordination of policy across food-water-energy-climate-

environment nexus

# 61 and 62 – sustainable management of resources, in leveraging the proximity of

resources, environmentally sound management and minimization of all waste, including

energy, water, food, and materials

# 43, #45, #57, #67 – enhanced resource efficiency

Partner-cities

Create resilient cities (economically, socially, ecologically) through:

• Physical infrastructure (introduction of innovative technologies, norms &

standards, infrastructure projects) (hard ware)

• Social infrastructure

(all inclusive cities, people centered development, integrated, cross sectorial

planning and implementation, decentralization along subsidiarity principle)

(soft ware)

• Circular (green) economy (return/reuse/recycle) / job creation

DON’T WASTE THE WASTE


Energy & Material Cycle of Solid Waste

Implemented by

• Recycling of

Solid Waste:

• Energy

(Biogas, RDF)

• Water reuse

• Metals, Minerals

the other way of thinking -

Usage of waste as resource –

Replacing "Sanitary Landfills"

Waste is made up of the

same components world-

wide.

Although residual

household waste varies

on a regional and

international level, the

essential components of

waste are the same the

world over.

MYT® breaks waste

down into its four

components, treats them

according to their specific

material and extracts the

maximum potential from

them.
