London School of Economics, Cities Programme

London

The Cities Programme was established at the London School of Economics and Political Sciences in 1996. Our main objective is to link the urban social sciences with sign of cities built environment and infrastructure. As an international centre of excellence in the social sciences, the LSE has a longstanding commitment to an innovative understanding of urban society. Our purpose is simple and broad: to improve the quality of the built environment. The design of urban buildings, places and spaces is often at odds with the needs of urban society. We aim to make the built environment more socially sensitive, and to make people more aware of the social role of architecture and planning. In 2003 the programme formalised its consultancy and research work by setting up Enterprise LSE Cities Limited.
