Source of Best Practice Information:
all of the programme summaries are taken from the Best Practices Database
compiled by UN-Habitat and with the support of the UNESCO-MOST Clearing
House. The database is extensive and contains 700 examples of good and
best practices which were reviewed and judged by independent technical
committees and juries for the Habitat II City Summit in Istanbul in 1996,
and for the Dubai International Awards for Best Practices in Improving
the Living Environment, in 1998. The summaries of selected good and best
practices are included in the MOST Database because of their particular
relevance to or impact on poverty eradication and on social cohesion.

Local Leadership Programme and the Dubai International Awards can be obtained
