Projecting city growth worldwide, our 'The Future of Cities' conference will ask how rapid urban growth can be planned, managed and financed.

As cities are being forced to address some of the most dramatic challenges of the 21st Century, including energy and water supply, demographics and climate change, can they lead the way in finding sustainable solutions?

Can cities lead in meeting new challenges?

  • What policy tools do cities need to tackle these challenges?
  • Can cities leapfrog to low carbon development pathways?
  • Strategic planning for social inclusion
  • What are essential services and infrastructure? How can they be made sustainable?
  • What are the best models for financing development to support long-term growth and sustainability?
