As cities continue to expand, the challenge of creating spaces that are not only well-connected but also liveable and environmentally sustainable is more pressing than ever. How do we transform towards more liveable, well-connected, and green cities? This seminar tackles this key question, focusing on the role of master planning and urban mobility in shaping the future of our urban environments.

The discussion will centre on how thoughtful urban planning can enhance public spaces, integrate green infrastructure, and develop efficient, sustainable transport systems. By exploring innovative mobility solutions, including greener transport networks and smarter connectivity, the session will present actionable ideas for building cities that balance growth with environmental responsibility and the well-being of all citizens.

The Liveable City

The two-day event features four independent seminars addressing the question of how cities can become better places to live, work and play as well whilst increasing quality of life for everyone.

The event is organised by the Royal Danish Embassy in London in partnership with Glasgow City Council, Stirling Council, the Scottish Cities Alliance and Creative Denmark and aims to bring together best practice from Denmark and Scotland in architecture and city development.
