Pacto para el Futuro de la Humanidad
Peace
Local and regional governments are one of the main foundations of any democratic society as they represent the level of government closest to the people; municipal international cooperation and decentralized cooperation, partnership, twinning, international local government diplomacy, sister city links, and mutual assistance through capacity-building programmes and international municipal solidarity initiatives, are a contribution to multilateralism that has shown to be vital for the construction of a more peaceful and just world.
Conflict is linked to human beings and their relations with each other and their relations with the world. The urban component of peacebuilding calls on local and regional governments to work to ensure conflict does not derive into violence. Urban and territorial peacebuilding efforts need to place the focus on building equal access to the city, reducing inequalities, and developing safe environments for all to ensure cities and territories of peace.
