The delegation from Shanghai University, led by President Liu, was invited to the forum by Anaclaudia Rossbach, executive director of UN-Habitat. The agreement outlines a commitment to strengthen the strategic partnership between the university and UN-Habitat through various initiatives, including the launch of the quarterly journal Urban Regeneration and hosting the First Session of Global Urban Regeneration Best Practices.

"The university will expand its in-depth cooperation with UN-Habitat, government authorities, and leading companies in urban construction and governance, striving to cultivate talents with interdisciplinary skills and explore new pathways for urban regeneration amidst new circumstances and challenges," Liu added.
Aligned with the forum's theme, "It all starts at home: Local actions for sustainable cities and communities," Shanghai University also held an exhibition at the Egypt International Exhibition Center to showcase Shanghai's practices towards a sustainable urban future, in collaboration with the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development.
