Abstract This chapter presents a comprehensive analysis of UNSDG 11, i.e., making human settlements and cities inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. As the world is facing increased urbanization, with an estimated 70% of the global population projected to reside in cities by 2050, the demand for sustainable urban development has never been so urgent. On the basis of an analysis of theoretical models, empirical evidence, policy interventions, and case studies from diverse global contexts, this chapter outlines the multifaceted nature of urban sustainability challenges and opportunities. This chapter also discusses the convergence of technological advancements, including artificial intelligence and smart city technologies, in advancing urban sustainability goals. Through the convergence of knowledge from urban planning, environmental science, sociology, economics, and technology studies, this chapter develops in-depth understanding of opportunities for the fulfillment of SDG 11 under the pressure of increased urbanization, climate change, and socioeconomic inequality. © 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
