Cities are the place of economic production, knowledge and innovation – together with connectivity, creativity and services. As cities are dense, they offer also high potentials for energy savings and low carbon economies. However, cities are also today confronted to several challenges: unemployment, segregation, climate change issues.
During the Metropolitan Solutions 2016 in Berlin, ISOCARP in collaboration with CORP offers two workshops focusing on implementation of good practices, by listening first from leading companies from the private sector, and secondly by presenting solutions for cities elaborated by urban planners in interdisciplinary teams: the Urban Planning Advisory Teams program (UPAT) of ISOCARP.
The results of the presentations and discussions will be a contribution to the New Urban Agenda in Quito HABITAT III and presented by the General Assembly of Partners (GAP) under the ISOCARP Chair.
