In today's property market of inflated prices and high interest rates, access to adequate housing feels out of reach for too many. That's why this year's theme of World Habitat Day Adequate Housing for All is pressing and relevant. https://www.un.org/observances/habitat-day #WorldHabitatDay #SDG11

The Sketch Map Tool is a low-tech solution for community mapping through offline collection, digitization, and georeferencing of local data. It simplifies the gathering and analysis of spatial knowledge and perceptions.

Base maps: #OpenStreetMap & satellite data or drone imagery from #OpenAerialMap.

It supports disaster risk assessment, urban planning, & the collection of local knowledge that official datasets often miss.

🌍 Heute ist der #WorldHabitatDay!

Der Tag lenkt den Blick auf den Zustand unserer Städte und auf die Frage, wie wir diese nachhaltig und lebenswert gestalten können.

Dafür brauchen wir gute Umwelt- und Naturschutzdaten: wie verändern sich Artenvorkommen, Flächennutzung und ökologische Vernetzung?

Solche Daten schaffen eine wichtige Grundlage dafür, Siedlungsräume zu planen und zu entwickeln, ohne die Natur aus dem Blick zu verlieren.

Im Aktionsmonat #UrbanOctober rückt UN-HABITAT nachhaltige Stadtentwicklung in den Fokus: vom World Habitat Day bis zum World Cities Day am 31.10.

Schwerpunkte:
● Wohnraum für alle & Schutz vor Verdrängung
● Klimaresilienz & nachhaltige Mobilität
● Mitgestaltung durch Bürger:innen

Always remember that cities are the driving force of civilizations, they are engines of growth. Throughout history people have come from rural areas to move to cities to realise their dreams of a better life. Often this dream is not realised. Therefore, let's together make all the cities in the world sustainable, for current and future generation

Furthermore, this theme highlights sustainable, scalable, and transformative solutions to urban displacement that help stabilise populations, while promoting prosperity and fostering social cohesion for all. It will put the spotlight on the importance of urban and territorial planning, inclusive urban governance, and the role of local governments.

The Amazon is one of our greatest hopes for a liveable future - life on the planet depends on the rainforest’s powerful ability to regulate climate and weather patterns. But it faces an urgent threat from industrial-scale agriculture and illegal gold mining.⁣

RT by @eurireland: On this #WorldHabitatDay, look at EU’s endangered habitats 👇

🐝Over 1/4 of Europe’s animal species are at risk of extinction
🏔️81% of EU the habitats are in poor status

That’s why the 🇪🇺#NRL aims to restore at least 20% of land and sea areas by 2030 👉 https://europa.eu/!qFDVgf

"Two thousand times the woods grew green, and ring-doves built their nests. Day and night for two thousand years—light and shadow sweeping over the mound—two thousand years of labour by day and slumber by night. Mystery gleaming in the stars, pouring down in the sunshine, speaking in the night, the wonder of the sun and of far space, for twenty centuries round about this low and green-grown dome."
