In Transit will participate at the Tenth Session of the World Urban Forum (WUF 10) and contribute to the Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) and AHO-led side-event 'Reconceptualising and responding to urban crises: Researcher-practitioner reflections on innovation, culture and transformative urban practices' with DWELL-partners, UN-Habitat and other members of the Global Alliance for Urban Crises.
The World Urban Forum (WUF) was established in 2001 by the United Nations to address one of the most pressing issues facing the world today: rapid urbanization and its impact on communities, cities, economies, climate change and policies. Convened by UN-Habitat, the Forum is a high level, open and inclusive platform for addressing the challenges of sustainable urbanization.
The theme of the Tenth Session is Cities of Opportunities: Connecting Culture and Innovation.
