UNOPS Urban Vision Workshop Curaçao
“During the Planning Week in Curaçao, a group of local and international planning experts – including three ISOCARP members – developed ideas for a new vision on how to localize the New Urban Agenda to the small island state. Willemstad, the only city on the island, houses around 75% of the total population and it has spread out over nearly 40% of the island territory. However, less than 2% of the island population is living in the inner city, which is recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Site. Therefore, while the inner city is decaying, the sprawled city is lacking structure, highly car-dependent and is costly to maintain.” Source: www.isocarp.org
