Background
The Spatial Planning Platform (SPP) was proposed by the Government of Japan at the side event of Habitat III held in Quito, Ecuador, in October 2016. It aims 1) to make a network of all stakeholders for sharing their experience and knowledge on the design and implementation of national and regional spatial plans; and 2) to support formulation and implementation of better spatial plans. It will contribute to implementing the New Urban Agenda (NUA) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), together with the National Urban Policy Programme (NUPP) launched by OECD, Cities Alliance and UN-Habitat and Cities Alliance.
SPP was officially established on 1 August 2018 at the 1st SPP Meeting held in Fukuoka, Japan.
