“UN-HABITAT and the University British Columbia have announced a partnership to create the UBC / UN-HABITAT Archives which will be the world’s most complete online repository of information on building sustainable cities.
In a statement read on her behalf, UN-HABITAT’s Executive Director, Mrs. Anna Tibaijuka said she was delighted to learn that the Vancouver-based university had taken initiative to build a virtual human settlements information centre containing critical print and electronic material from Habitat’s first conference held in1976 up to and including the 2006 World Urban Forum III both of which took place in Vancouver.
The resulting web-based UBC / UN-HABITAT Archive will provide an invaluable resource for learning, teaching and practice on our towns and cities locally, nationally, and globally, she observed.”
