Increasing numbers of people live in cities worldwide. The life and lifestyles of cities and its citizens create more and more stress – both for the environment and the citizens themselves. We experience the growing stress as both local crisis - of health, mobility, access, sufficiency, waste management, breakdown of services, dignity - and global problems - terrorism, pandemics, energy crisis, global warming. The world needs ideas that will inspire better cities and better citizenship.
