Urban communities around the world are facing great challenges in form of climate change, lack of trust in democratic institutions, increasing inequality and health differences. Many actors need to cooperate to adress these complex issues. And to succeed, we need to work together - not just to formulate solutions - but also defining the problems. For 3 years, the member cities of Nordic City Network have focused on seeing, understanding and changing their communities to make them more inclusive, resilient and innovative. Through theses, tests and evaluation, the cities have produced new ideas and methods for urban development. Read more about the conference on November 24th.
