Strategy of sustainable urban development of the Republic of Serbia until 2030.

This publication, as in accordance with the Law on planning system of the Republic of Serbia, provides for the Strategy of sustainable urban development of the Republic of Serbia until 2030. The strategy of sustainable urban development is adopted for the first time in the Republic of Serbia in accordance with the needs of urban planning, solving the problems of urban development and the potentials that urban settlements carry as generators of development activities. The complexity of urban space requires a special approach to directing development trends and activities in urban areas. This urban development policy is a public policy that is a key instrument for achieving sustainable urban development using an integrated approach. Given that urban development in each country is the result of activities and decisions in different sectors, the main task of urban development policy is to establish coordination over different sectors and define priorities by harmonizing the needs and interests of different actors. National urban development policy, according to modern definitions, is a coherent set of decisions, led by the national government through the process of cooperation of various actors in formulating a common vision and goals, which directs long-term transformative, productive, inclusive and resilient urban development.
