WORKSHOP:

About the Course:
This workshop aims to contribute to the promotion of sustainable and equitable
urban development, leading to improved environmental and living conditions for
all in Asian cities. To achieve this, the workshop bridges the gap between strategic
city development planning and urban policies, services, and infrastructure project
preparation. The operational objectives of this workshop are to improve urban
infrastructure and services management. You will focus on developing investments
in urban infrastructure and services through bridging the gap between city—level
urban strategies and implementation of specific infrastructure projects with
domestic, international, public, or private financing. This workshop will also help
to exchange perspectives from key factor on the topic together with presentations
of specific case studies from Asia and other parts of the world. The course offered
would also cater to identify and remove these bottlenecks as cities seek sources for
financing their urban infrastructure investments. The sessions would also take a
broad perspective on private financing that goes beyond PPP arrangements.
At the end of this course, participants would be able to assess the range of infrastructure
alternatives by development objectives and financing constraints. The participants will
also leave with skills of programming and prioritising the list of development projects
currently identified within their strategic plans according to clearly identified criteria and
values. These skills are combined with a deep understanding of alternate infrastructure
financing option and the ability to delineate clearly between operational and strategic
development issues and projects

About the Course Facilitator:
Joris van Etten Deputy Program Coordinator
City Development Initiatives Asia (CDIA), Philippines
Joris van Etten is an Urban Management specialist who has been involved in
improving urban infrastructure planning and service delivery in countries in
Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe. Through his participation in a wide variety of
programmes and projects for (supra) national, provincial and local governments, he
has developed a solid understanding of the challenges which cities in developing
and transitional countries are facing and the need to address (local) government
capacity constraints and create conducive policy environments. Mr. Van Etten
has over 15 years of experience in closely working with urban stakeholders and
strengthening urban planning and service delivery. He has extensive experience in
developing and implementing capacity development strategies, workshops, and
conferences and has provided substantive inputs for the development of urban
strategies and policies as well as donor coordination.
He has held management positions for a variety of projects and programmes and
has extensive experience to plan, implement and monitor development activities.
He was previously attached with UN—Habitat in Kenya, European Commission (EC)
supported Urban Environmental Planning Programme in Vietnam (UEPP—VN) and
Institute for Housing and Urban Development Studies (IHS) in Netherlands and
Jakarta.
CDIA is an international partnership initiative, established in 2007, by the Asian
Development Bank (ADB) and the Government of Germany, with additional
core funding support from the governments of Austria, Sweden, Switzerland
and the Shanghai Municipal Government. The Initiative provides assistance to
medium—sized Asian cities to bridge the gap between their development plans
and the implementation of their infrastructure investments. CDIA supports the
identification and development of urban investment projects and links them with
potential financiers. CDIA is also gaining synergies by cooperating with existing
city—focused networks in fostering urban management capabilities. In addition
to city governments and their national government counterpart from across Asia,
the CDIA network also includes international infrastructure advisors, financiers,
suppliers, and operators. As part of this network, city members have a unique
resource for accessing the most suitable development partners, and private—sector
members such as banks, institutional investors, developers, suppliers, and operators
have access to a new range of projects.

Governments are heavily investing in various initiatives to counter the high urban
migration in their major cities by upgrading their infrastructure and improving city centres
to establish their city as the city of choice. So, it is essential to understand how other
cities of exemplary examples have secured and structured their financing to attract and
cultivate additional investment opportunities. Also, cities that are properly planned would
provide a better standard of living for their inhabitants; attract talent and investment
opportunities for a greater economic growth.
This conference provides the perfect platform to explore ways of integrating your
development with sustainable city planning strategies, more effective transportation
systems, low—carbon networks and efficient and scalable social infrastructure. Attend
this event to enhance the living standards and establish a vibrant economic climate to
address the rapid urbanisation and improve the liveability of your city.

over Day One and Day Two:
Days One & Two
Stream I: Urban Planning & Regeneration
This stream focuses on elements of masterplanning and designing town and cities toward
a more holistic sustainable development. It would include strategies to create public spaces
to promote better community interactions. It would also discuss on utilising mixed—use
development approaches to integrate new city projects within an existing development to
enhance the economic benefits. This stream would also expand on utilising green designs
to conserve historical sites and create a sustainable city with enhanced energy efficiency.
Stream II: Infrastructure Development & Financing
This stream will deepen your understanding and discuss innovative ways to improve your
city’s infrastructure and acquire the right financing options to fund these projects. The
stream would also address the collaboration between public and private sectors to further
infrastructure developments. Also, uncover ways to improve water, drainage, power, roads
and urban transport infrastructure.
Stream III: Urban Mobility
This stream would elaborate on sustainable urban mobility through the use of public
transportation and pedestrian—friendly designs. This would include creating a transit—
oriented city with the incorporation of mass transportation to reduce traffic congestion
