Registration is open for the European Commission JRC webinars in the Future of Cities Series .
The Future of Cities report identifies
challenges influencing the future of cities in Europe and beyond. It
also presents several perspectives from which to look at resolving these
issues. It is an initiative of the Joint Research Centre (JRC), the
science and knowledge service of the European Commission (EC), supported
by the Commission's Directorate-General for Regional and Urban
Policy (DG REGIO).
By taking stock of
current knowledge and understanding of city systems, the report
highlights potential pitfalls cities should avoid, and defines broad
principles they should lean towards. It aims to foster discussion and
help policy makers, individual cities and their citizens choose the best
way forward.
