How we act and interact in times of crisis
In times of crisis people tend to become more innovative and creative, trying to find new solutions, and also we notice a new type of solidarity, we stand more united against our enemy.
We are curious – and concerned – about our common future. How we can learn from each-other, both about the challenges facing us and the logic behind successful innovations. Is there a possibility to stand better prepared and face the challenges ahead?
YES, we think so!
In 2010, we launched the results from an extensive international study about the future challenges and success factors for large cities. This 2010 version of Urban Trends pinpointed many of the factors that have since then showed to be essential in urban planning and development; sustainability, diversity, collaboration and identity. You may agree that we were quite right.
