Realising Just Cities conference week
- Mistra Urban Futures delegation only
13-18 October, Sheffield, UK
The 4th Annual Realising Just Cities Conference focused on lessons, impacts and outcomes since the start of Mistra Urban Futures in 2010 but with particular emphasis on the current 2016-19 phase of closer international collaborative and comparative research now ending.
The Centre has sought to co-produce knowledge and action to support sustainable urban development across cities in the Global North and South, working through Local Interaction Platforms and other forms of partnership that bring together researchers from different stakeholders in transdisciplinary teams.
Our 2019 conference was held in Sheffield, hosted by the Sheffield-Manchester Local Interaction Platform and included representatives from partner cities in Buenos Aires, Cape Town, Gothenburg, Kisumu, Malmö, Shimla, and Stockholm.
