CITIES FOR EVERYONE: Liveable, Healthy, Prosperous
Promising Vision or Unrealistic Fantasy?
The role of Urban Planning and Urban Technologies on the path towards improved Quality of Life, Health, Sustainability and Prosperity in our Cities
Cities are places of competition, stress, inequalities, traffic jams, environmental stresses and strains and permanent struggle. Cities often are an aggressive environment, not only for children, the elderly, the weak or the handicapped. But even more than that; cities are the centres of economy, culture, creativity, science and innovation and therefore provide the best perspectives and biggest chances for many people: CITIES ARE ATTRACTIVE! Meanwhile more than 50 percent of the world population live in cities, soon it will be about 70 percent.
