Description:

We live in an urban world. Cities and city-regions around the globe face pressing social and environmental challenges linked to climate change, emerging infectious disease, global migration, and deepening social inequalities and racial divides. But cities are also the places where collective solutions to these problems can be found and new ways of life are initiated. In Cities, Regions, Planning, you learn to apply inclusive and sustainable planning interventions, consulting skills, governance procedures and activist tools to manage urban growth (and decline), provide infrastructure, integrate newcomers, and mitigate environmental impacts.
