World Urban Forum important, but overlooked by media
Thanks to Neal Peirce and The Times for telling us about the World Urban Forum. [“Re-engaging with the world’s cities,” Opinion, April 6.]
I share Peirce’s surprise and regret that U.S. media have failed to report this important event and the vision it nourishes. The Obama administration’s participation in this dialogue points toward exactly what Peirce highlights: “ … the cooperative promise of building constructive relationships as a less arrogant America.”
The positive returns could be immeasurable.
