Global Urban Futures: What We Do


fractal grey.gif

We are a network of partners who are reshaping the global urban agenda by reframing the way urbanists think about the city. Global Urban Futures project insists that three topics should be treated simultaneously, rather than in parallel: climate change, inequality, and economic growth. The project's aimes are to: 1) Undertake a program of applied policy research and advocacy to deepen the understanding of urban issues and proposes alternative policies to address current challenges. 2) Work with both urban policy communities and civil society organizations through a targeted advocacy campaign to build a partnership and shared perspective on these issues.
