Cities Research Centre
We develop ‘cities’ research in a number of cross-cutting themes and specific urban challenges.
Research
We are an international reference point for academic research and practical action, for inclusive, productive and sustainable cities.
We integrate and generate new research on changing patterns of urban life and how to create better cities in both developed and developing countries.

The Inclusive City
Research themes include:

The Productive City
Research themes include:

The Sustainable City
Research themes include:
