This Review of World Planning Practice (Volume 18), titled Towards Healthy Cities: Urban Governance, Planning and Design for Human Well-being, adds to the enormous debate on the role of cities and the phenomenon of urbanisation during the pandemic triggered by the coronavirus. The papers selected for this Review open up different perspectives, some utopian, as it should be when one talks about innovating and changing the city, and others more founded on paths tested in other urban phenomena, such as urban regeneration, the fight against social exclusion, the quest for sustainability, and the design of public spaces. -

Cities and regions today face converging pressures from accelerating climate impacts, deepening social inequities, and fast-moving technological change. The ISOCARP Review of World Planning Practice Diamond Edition 2025, Cities & Regions in Action: Pathways to Resilience, brings these dynamics into clear focus and offers a grounded and forward-looking view of how planning practice is responding. Through case studies, reflective essays, and applied research, the volume shows how planners are rethinking resilience not as a slogan but as a practical lens for shaping cities that are adaptable, livable, and centered on people.
