This new 10-minute film features some of the world's leading experts in urban development along with city leaders from around the world. It was produced by award-winning filmmaker Babar Ahmed, and focuses on solutions to the challenges that cities face today.

The film includes highlights from the recent "Innovative Cities Global Dialogue," which brought together mayors and managers from cities including Ahmedabad, India; Dar es Salaam, Tanzania; and Seattle, Washington.

The dialogue is part of a series that provides a forum for sharing innovations and lessons in urban governance. The series is a collaborative effort of the World Bank Institute and the World Bank's Urban Development and Local Government unit.
