🌍 Exploring Social Sustainability in Future Urban Living 🌍 Excited to share insights from our ongoing research on the Sustainable3 Futures project! Today I had the honour to present the tentative results at the RESER | European Association for Research on Services conference 2024 based on our paper on “Social sustainability value co-creation for future urban living” co-authored with Kirsi Hyytinen and Maija Federley. Our focus is on how social sustainability value is co-created through collaboration between citizens, urban planners, and companies to create sustainable cities. Key points: *Social Sustainability: Defined as both a desirable state for communities and the continuous process of achieving that state, encompassing safety, equity, adaptability, inclusion, and quality of life (McKenzie 2004, Ly & Cope 2023). *Challenges: Urbanization and climate change pose significant threats to social sustainability, particularly for disadvantaged groups. *Vision: A healthy, balanced urban environment promoting individual well-being and community cohesion. *Co-creation: Essential for managing urban sustainability, involving all stakeholders in the lifecycle of the built environment. *Research findings: Highlight tensions between strategic intentions and lived experiences, emphasizing the need for a systemic approach and continuous stakeholder input. Let's work together to build socially sustainable urban environments for future generations! 🌱🏙️ #Sustainable3Futures VTT  

This is a really important contribution with the forecast growth in cities across the globe and the importance of transformation connected with so many aspects of cities for addressing climate change and for our quality of life. Join the conversation with World Benchmarking Alliance

DIALOG Chair Antonio Gomez-Palacio-Palacio is heading to San Francisco  to moderate a World Economic Forum panel titled ‘Driving Climate Action in Cities’ at the fourth annual Urban Transformation Summit. The Urban Transformation Summit, held on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, aims to address critical urban challenges by bringing together a diverse group of collaborators. Cities are on the frontline of the global climate crisis, and urban areas are situated in regions where the impacts of climate change have been most severe. The summit highlights key themes including sustainable urban design, climate adaptation and infrastructure planning, , financing strategies for urban development, mobility and city services, and inclusive economic growth and affordability. In this discussion moderated by Antonio, panelists Lauren Sorkin-Yeo, Donnel Baird, and Mark E. Rose will explore how community leaders address the effects of climate change in cities.
