Adequate shelter that provides security and safety is a fundamental need and a basic human right. • A major challenge in the 21st century is the creation of liveable urban areas, given the rapid urban growth across the world, in particular the global south. More than half the world’s population now lives in cities. • While the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development recognized the power of cities and towns which will constitute 70 per cent of the world population by 2050, SDG 11 is specifically on making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. • The United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development in 2016 (Habitat III) emphasised the need for a New Urban Agenda, which would lay out the framework for how best to promote sustainable urbanisation.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
