Document published by the International Institute for Environment and Development. SECURe lays out an approach for establishing an appropriate entry point for developing urban resilience, analysing the institutional, cultural and environmental context of the city, and then determining the most appropriate type of change that the intervention can effectively achieve. SECURe was produced through a co-creation process that drew on the work and lessons of over 100 participating organisations across Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. More than 50% of the world’s population lives in towns and cities. Urban growth is set to continue, leading to 68% of the global population living in cities by 2050.
