Our vision
Around the world, urbanisation is advancing like never before. By 2030, 60% of the global population is expected to live in urban areas. Cities continue to grow and increasingly suffer from pollution, congestion, overcrowding, loss of biodiversity and income inequality. City life is under pressure and we need to rethink the way we design and approach cities.
We believe multi-stakeholder collaboration is essential to co-create urban progress. By bringing diverse urban stakeholders together, we can better balance needs and collectively overcome challenges. We build strong coalitions to realise inclusive housing developments, co-create tangible guidelines for embedding biodiversity standards in new urban developments and pilot new digital solutions to realise smart use of space. To name just a few of our focus areas.
