“Cities are not just clusters of buildings, but places of human stories. Urbanization is changing societies at an unprecedented pace, and we must approach this process not only in terms of numbers, but also through the lens of humanity,” said Nga Kor Ming, Minister of Housing and Local Government of Malaysia, and President of UN-Habitat Assembly, at a press conference held as part of the 13th Session of the World Urban Forum (WUF13).
