Building the Future: How Science is Transforming Metropolises

Session co-organized by Metropolis and UCLG, in the framework of Metropolis Congress

🎯 Description: 

Cities have always been at the forefront of innovation in the pursuit of creating a better future for all. From revolutionising sewage systems to designating eco-friendly zones and building energy-efficient homes, cities have tirelessly strived to enhance the quality of life for their inhabitants. But what does the future hold for urban development? With so much uncertainty on the horizon, strategic foresight is critical to help cities prepare for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow.

During this session, we will invite scientists and urban leaders to imagine what cities will look like in the next 30 years. Don't miss this unique opportunity to engage with leading scientists, city leaders and urban planners and learn how science can transform cities for the better. Be a part of the conversation and help shape a brighter tomorrow for all.
