description |
Major events have reshaped the internal
population flows of Eurasia, including the breakup of the
Soviet Union, the development of market economies, and the
rising influence of regional powers. Looking ahead, policy
makers need to promote reforms to make Eurasian cities the
main drivers of growth. This can be done by rethinking
strategies to better plan, connect, and green the region s
important urban centers. Improved planning means promoting
policies to develop land and housing markets and enhance
public service delivery. Greening Eurasian cities refers to
ensuring their sustainable development through strong
markets and institutions that encourage the efficient use of
resources, address pollution, and build livable cities. To
appropriately fund these needed changes, subnational
finances will have to be reformed and new ways to finance
cross-country connectivity explored. |
