Urban-Rural Linkages: Guiding Principles. Framework for Action to Advance Integrated Territorial Development
A multilevel, multistakeholder guidance framework and tool to strengthen urban-rural linkages in national and subnational policies and programmes. Protection and promotion of health by balancing urban, peri-urban and rural health challenges are included in the guiding principles to provide social protection and do no harm. Useful for policy-makers at all governance levels, programme managers, private sector and civil society actors and implementation partners of local and subnational governments. This document is adequate for incorporating into public policy and programme provision for social services across the urban-rural continuum such as coordinated health, nutrition and sanitation plans, reduction of spatial and social inequities in quality health services, and mainstreaming efforts to create healthy and safe environments in integrated, resilient and sustainable UTP.
