The National Sample of Cities Approach for the Monitoring of Urban SDGs Eduardo Lopez Moreno – Coordinator, Research and Capacity Development Branch

Countries will face serious problems: Country Year of reporting 1 SDG Goal 11 Goal 11 monitoring and reporting presents major challenges that other SDGs do not necessarily confront Countries will face serious problems: create a consistent set of cities for national level reporting that is representative of their territory, geography and history difficulties to report on national (urban) progress in a systematic manner over time Country Year of reporting 1 Year of reporting 2 Country 1 5 cities 10 cities Country 2 8 cities 4 cities

Indicators with a spatial component SDG Goal 11 Monitoring Goal 11 – A New Challenge Spatial Indicators Indicators with a spatial component Geospatial data Adequate technology Management systems 11.1 11.1 11.3 Slums and housing Transport Land Consuption 11.7 Spatial disaggregated data provides relevant information for policy-makers… but how to decide on: Local-level allocation of resources Monitoring of equitable outcomes New form of collection New form of analysis Public Space

Reporting Goal 11 – Additional challenge SDG Goal 11 Reporting Goal 11 – Additional challenge Several indicators require to be collected locally: How to aggregate this data at national level? How to create a regional balance? How to know where are the challenges (small, intermediate cities, coastal, boarder)? Which cities are having problems of data collection and why? 11.2 11.3 11.4 Public Transport Land Consuption Cultural heritage 11.6 11.7 Solid waste and air quality Public Space

SDG Goal 11 UN-Habitat will support national governments in the definition of a sample of representative cities and in the data aggregation process

National Sample of Cities Monitoring World Urbanization Trends and Conditions with the Global Sample of Cities

National Sample of Cities Based on 200 cities, it represents the 5% of the Universe of 4,231 cities over 100,000 inhabitants in 2010 and 70% of the world urban population

National Sample of Cities Using freely available Landsat imagery, land can be classified into built-up, open space, and water areas. RURAL

National Sample of Cities The National Sample of Cities can be used to harmonize urban data and indicators using an agreed number of cities that are statistically representative of the country’s urban human settlements CRITERIA Number of cities The population The size of the city Geographic location City functionality Economic and political importance

ADVANTAGES 1 National Sample of Cities Integrated and systematic approach of the city Integrate cities of all sizes, functions and types as part of a national system of cities Assist in the aggregation of locally produced city indicators Platform for a unified methodology for SDGs reporting

ADVANTAGES 2 National Sample of Cities Calculate un-weighted / weighted national averages Facilitate a systematic disaggregation of information at national, sub-national and city levels Create baseline data and information for selected cities of the national sample Establish benchmarks and national targets to enable for comparisons ADVANTAGES 2

National Sample of Cities The adoption of a National Sample of Cities can reduce but not to eliminate the lack of consistency and comparability in the use of indicators A combination of data sources at different administrative levels could make difficult to homologate information and aggregate values In many countries it is possible to find a mismatch between city boundaries and urban data associated to municipalities, metropolises or urban agglomerations. LIMITATIONS Buenos Aires

National Sample of Cities The National Sample of Cities can contribute to the improvement of data availability, accuracy, timely reporting and comparability A comprehensive capacity building programme is needed: Work on an operational definition of the ‘city’ for national aggregation Produce spatial data that can be comparable Develop appropriate guidelines and tools needed to the adaptation and use of the National Sample of Cities Increased broad public awareness in the use of the National Sample of Cities
