Description du stage : In line with the new planning trends in Europe where cities are abandoning the conventional but ineffective Master Plans, which was distinctly confirmed during the recent WUF in Barcelona, UN-HABITAT is advocating an approach to urban planning in the Balkan Region that is inclusive, strategic and action-oriented. The Project will contribute to strengthening the attitudes and skills of the Mostar urban planners in a unified multi-ethnic administration; press forward the reconciliation process by promoting a participatory and transparent preparation of the unified urban plans and their subsequent administration; incorporate reconciliation and confidence building in the plan preparation procedures; and address the most crucial urbanization challenges as part of the city's post-conflict recovery.

The intern will participate in a team of international and national planning and governance experts. She/he will prepare and conduct urban consultations and have responsibility for the multi-ethnic engagement in the various phases of the planning process. UN-HABITAT is also proposing another internship at the headquarters in Nairobi in the Urban Development Branch. In order to establish the linkage between the two internships, the intern will also assist in finalisation of GDPP Governance and Development Planning Programme - a UN-HABITAT project in Kosovo. Toolkit on Strategic Planning in South Eastern Europe, with inputs from the Mostar project.
Organisation d'accueil : UN-HABITAT Mostar
Détails au sujet de l'organisation d'accueil : As the lead agency within the United Nations system for co-ordinating activities in the field of human settlements, UN-HABITAT is also the focal point for the implementation of the Habitat Agenda - the global plan of action adopted in June 1996 by the international community at the Habitat II Conference in Istanbul, Turkey. Its activities contribute to the overall objective of the United Nations system to reduce poverty and promote sustainable development within the context of a rapidly urbanising world. Within the broader context of sustainable human settlements development, UN-HABITAT focuses much of its work on the two key themes of the Habitat Agenda - adequate shelter for all and urban governance. Through the two Global Campaigns on Secure Tenure and Urban Governance respectively, UN-HABITAT promotes concepts of inclusion, participation and sustainability in the human settlements context. These overarching issues are also reflected in the work of the Disaster Management Programme to support sustainable, people centred solutions in disaster management.
