Rethinking sustainable urban development and public spaces 

Do you love your city?

Dreamtown and the Australian organisation Urban Synergies Group are hosting an event with a focus on sustainable urban development with the support of CISU – Civilsamfund i Udvikling.

We will explore new approaches to sustainable development in cities with a special focus on public space. Based on the UN Worldwide and The New Urban Agenda, we will discuss the difference between liveability and lovability and give examples of ways to create lovable cities.
