Cities and urban agglomerations The “city proper” described here corresponds to the Toronto “census subdivision – municipality” as defined in the 2011 Census of Canada; the “urban agglomeration” corresponds to the Toronto “population centre”; and the “metropolitan area” corresponds to the Toronto “census metropolitan area.” Population data and boundaries are from Statistics Canada (http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/index-eng.cfm). Satellite image is from Google Imagery TerraMetrics 2016. 10
THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT Project Objective and Outcome: to identify and describe the most critical challenges of urban agglomerations; to share the experience of SAIs in auditing this area and at the same time; and to emphasize the importance of this issue within the INTOSAI WGEA in the set planning period. 11

EXAMPLES OF GOALS 18
GOAL 11: MAKE CITIES INCLUSIVE, SAFE, RESILIENT AND SUSTAINABLE Half of humanity – 3.5 billion people – lives in cities today By 2030, almost 60 per cent of the world’s population will live in urban areas 95 per cent of urban expansion in the next decades will take place in developing world 828 million people live in slums today and the number keeps rising The world’s cities occupy just 3 per cent of the earth’s land, but account for 60-80 per cent of energy consumption and 75 per cent of carbon emissions 19
GOAL 11: EXAMPLES OF TARGETS: By 2030, ensure access for all to adequate, safe and affordable housing and basic services and upgrade slums; By 2030, provide access to safe, affordable, accessible and sustainable transport systems for all, improving road safety, notably by expanding public transport, with special attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, women, children, persons with disabilities and older persons; By 2030, enhance inclusive and sustainable urbanization and capacity for participatory, integrated and sustainable human settlement planning and management in all countries; By 2030, reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, including by paying special attention to air quality and municipal and other waste management; By 2020, substantially increase the number of cities and human settlements adopting and implementing integrated policies and plans towards inclusion, resource efficiency, mitigation and adaptation to climate change, resilience to disasters, and develop and implement, in line with the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, holistic disaster risk management at all levels 20

Project Scope: Based on the main purpose, the key objectives for this project are : • to emphasize the importance of this issue within the INTOSAI WGEA in the next programming period; • to provide comprehensive data and information to the users of the project output regarding Greening Cities – Sustainable Cities; • to summarise performed and on-going audits on the subject; • to give examples of how the topic can be approached in audits and to sum up methodology and challenges related to performing the audit in this field; • to contribute to improving the quality of the city's environment. 23
Structure of the study CHAPTER 1 Basic information on concepts and definitions related to Greening cities and on environmental problems in urban agglomerations - objectives, definitions, typology of problems, examples of problems from the perspective of individual environmental components such as air quality, water protection, waste management, ecosystem services & green infrastructure. 24
Structure of the study CHAPTER 2 Importance of international accords, strategies and governmental programmes and instruments focused on individual environmental components and influence of these programmes on the quality of the environment in cities, or urban agglomerations and also with regards to the fulfilment of the Sustainable Development Goals. 25
Structure of the study CHAPTER 3 Experience of SAIs from audits of individual environmental components in cities, or urban agglomerations. This chapter will include case studies from environmental audits of SAIs which at least partially covered cities or urban agglomerations and also possible obstacles prevented SAIs from conducting audit on the subject. 26
Planned Methodology THIS RESEARCH PROJECT WILL BE BASED ON: guides and manuals published by INTOSAI; performance audits conducted by WGEA members; data collected by a survey sent to the WGEA members; resources available on websites of specialized and expert organizations and agencies; information exchange, e.g., by e-mail, tele- and videoconferences with members of the subgroup, and/or with other external experts; workshops and work sessions planned during the meetings of the WGEA and/or organized separately; SAO Czech Republic audit planned for 2018 “Support of air quality improvement”. 27
