[Konzepte und Strategien für eine global nachhaltige Landnutzung im Kontext der Urbanisierung – integrierte Ansätze für eine tragfähige Verbindung nachhaltiger urbaner und ruraler Entwicklung]

By examining national and international sets of indicators in the field of sustainable development ICLEI identified - and when necessary developed - possible key indicators for a rural urban nexus.

Through desk research, interviews and direct participation, ICLEI further identified relevant political dynamics and processes regarding the rural-urban nexus in the context of HABITAT III and the implementation of the SDGs. The aim was to identify ways through which the German federal government, and especially the Ministry for Environment and Building, can influence these processes in order to foster a global sustainable rural-urban nexus.
