Our Future Cities
What is Our Future Cities?
“Our Future Cities, to me, is about harnessing innovations to create urban spaces that nourish both people and the planet.”
”A place to collect like-minded people who want to create better urban futures from different angles for sustainability and resilience.”
“It's a space where young professionals come together to envision and work towards a future that doesn't just come from incremental changes but rather from an innovative disruptive change.”
At Our Future Cities we believe it’s time to broaden the dialogue, to ask questions, to challenge convention and to wonder what a brighter urban future could be.
To date, we have run several award winning programs, including interdisciplinary design competitions, seminar series, site visits, design workshops, mentoring sessions and more!
Our vision is to accelerate the transition to a sustainable future by creating deep and diverse connections with people and places.
Our mission is to build capacity through collaboration and innovation, and act as a catalyst for sustainable urban practices.
