Researchers at the University of Sydney School of Architecture, Design and Planning are exploring how urban environments can support healthier, more inclusive and resilient communities—locally and globally.

Through cross-disciplinary research, the team is rethinking how cities are designed and managed to address complex social and environmental challenges. Their work tackles issues such as biodiversity loss, climate impacts, housing inequality, social isolation, and cultural disconnection.

This research informs government policy, influences practice across sectors, and supports collaborative partnerships with NGOs, healthcare leaders and international bodies.

Explore how our researchers are creating new knowledge to shape flourishing cities.
