The majority of the world’s population now lives in urban areas, with urban management, sustainability and climate change becoming fundamental challenges for the government, private and community sectors in Australia and around the world. The need for strategic planning of cities is increasing globally in what has been dubbed ‘the urban century’: The majority of the world’s people now live in urban areas: currently, over half of the global population live in cities and that proportion is expected to rise to significantly by 2050. City planners will play a major role in assisting cities to meet climate change challenges and take advantage of rapid advances in technology.
