By 2030 5 billion people will need housing, infrastructure, services, food, healthcare, education, decent jobs and natural resources, with growing threats to society from climate change, water/food insecurity and ecological destruction. There is consensus among UN agencies and national governments to tackle these challenges and sufficient investment capital is available but not released due to lack of city region capacity and investment mechanisms. Computing and communications technology, geospatial data volumes and modelling skills have now improved significantly to enable integrated planning & investment decision making at the city community level to release this capital into the right projects. Our 2030 Roadmap action plan shows how $100 million core funding can create open-source software tools and facilitate release of $3.5 trillion/year of risk informed capital into city regions to enable 5 billion people by 2030 to live safe, healthy, productive, prosperous, fulfilling lives.
