In the eighties, development practitioners all over the world faced the challenge to keep cities sustainable both economically and environmentally. The UN Habitat, UNDP and the World Bank started an urban management programme, which in 1990 culminated in the Sustainable Cities Programme (SCP). 

The SCP's objective is to provide local authorities and their partners in the public and private sectors with improved Environmental Planning and Management (EPM) capacity by building on the principles of Agenda 21 of the United Nations. The EPM approach emphasizes the principles of bottom-up planning, stakeholder participation in decision making, building of partnerships between local governments and stakeholders, negotiation and consensus building as well as inter-sectoral coordination.
