Urban Age brings together professionals from a variety of different disciplines and backgrounds. Sociologists, geographers, economists and political scientists join practitioners such as planners, architects, developers, transport experts and engineers in a dialogue with political decision makers.
An advisory group representing these different theoretical and practical perspectives helps to define the Urban Age agenda. Working together on our six year investigation into the future of cities, these advisors help our team connect to the spatial and social forces shaping the cities we encounter around the world.
Each year the Urban Age network gradually expands with the addition of local experts in each of the cities we investigate. In addition to participating in the regional conferences, these local experts help to frame the investigation in their city and the Urban Age’s multi-year inquiry into the future of cities.
