National Institute of Urban Affairs (NIUA) conducted Webinar to Commemorate the Launch of the Inclusive Cities Centre.

Established in 1976, NIUA has been supporting the Government of India in policy formulation, research, and capacity building for the successful implementation of urban development projects.
The Inclusive Cities Center (ICC), set up at NIUA, aims to develop tools and frameworks for institutional strengthening of city authorities to promote inclusivity.
ICC will facilitate cities in evidence-based planning and investments to improve quality of life and productivity for all.
It will focus on the most vulnerable of the city residents including the urban poor, persons with disabilities, women, children, youth and elderly.
The centre will implement activities to address challenges related to spatial, social, economic and digital inclusion in cities.
