About the centre
Emerging Territories gathers together scholars working at the interface of urban planning, urbanism, mobility planning, ecologies and architecture. It broadly focuses on the societal and environmental challenges faced by cities and territories in relation to climate change and social and environmental injustice, new understandings of decolonising architecture and planning, and new critical perspectives of international development, diversity and social inclusion, and health and well-being.
