In May 2026, Azerbaijan will host one of the largest international events on sustainable urban development for the first time: the 13th World Urban Forum (WUF13). The forum will be held in Baku from 17 to 22 May 2026 and will be organized under the auspices of UN-Habitat.
The World Urban Forum is a global platform for discussing urban development, sustainable planning, transport, and the quality of the urban environment. Hosting WUF13 in Baku highlights the growing role of Azerbaijan’s capital on the international urban agenda.
What is the World Urban Forum?
The World Urban Forum brings together representatives of government agencies, international organizations, the expert community, and the business community from around the world.
The forum addresses key topics in contemporary urban development, including:
- urban infrastructure development,
- mobility and transport issues,
- sustainable urban planning,
- modern urban and technological solutions.
WUF13 in Baku is expected to attract a significant number of foreign guests, official delegations, and international experts.
The Importance of WUF13 for Baku
Hosting the 13th World Urban Forum requires coordinated efforts across various city sectors, including transportation, logistics, and service.
During the forum, there is traditionally a heightened demand for:
- organized and efficient guest transportation,
- reliable transportation solutions,
- transparent and understandable services for international participants.
The quality of transport infrastructure and service directly impacts the overall experience of international forum participants.
BAKU CARS‘s Practical Experience at International Events
BAKU CARS has practical experience working during international events. During COP29 in Baku, the company collaborated with a number of foreign embassies and international organizations, providing transportation support upon request.
Special attention was paid to:
- compliance with approved schedules,
- vehicle technical condition,
- correct and efficient communication.
The lessons learned are being used in preparation for the World Urban Forum (WUF13).
Preparation for WUF13 and Service Organization
During the forum, increased demand for car rentals in Baku and transportation services for official events is expected.
BAKU CARS focuses on providing:
- stable and predictable service,
- clean and technically sound vehicles,
- a careful and responsible approach to each order.
International Events and the Role of Service
The World Urban Forum is not only a platform for professional discussions but also a practical test for urban infrastructure and service companies. The level of transport service and logistics directly shapes the overall perception of the city by forum participants.
Experience from previous international events, including COP29, allows us to anticipate potential loads and tailor work processes to meet increased demand.
