About this programme
As the world continues to urbanize and globalize, cities are becoming the predominant form of human settlement that is simultaneously locally unique and globally networked. Cities define the scale at which most of the pressing societal issues are engaged.

Urban studies, in which the city is both object and context, are an interdisciplinary field, but it is glocalization, the ways in which dynamic global forces interact with local conditions, that is a key part of the programme's multiscalar perspective. It is seen as essential for new approaches in important fields of urban policy such as planning approaches to culture, adaptation to and mitigation of climate change, and the economy.
