INCLUSIVE URBAN FUTURES
Inclusive Urban Futures explores one of the defining questions of our time: how do we build inclusive urban futures in a world shaped by rapid urbanisation, technological disruption, demographic change, climate transition, and shifting patterns of investment and power?
Hosted by Dr. Orna Rosenfeld, global advisor on housing systems, investment and inclusion, the podcast brings together leaders, policymakers, researchers, investors, practitioners and innovators from around the world to examine the forces shaping the future of cities and societies.
Through conversations, reflections and thought leadership, Inclusive Urban Futures explores topics including housing affordability, urban development, social cohesion, migration, climate adaptation, digital transformation, artificial intelligence (AI), governance, and the evolving geography of urban growth. Episodes draw on perspectives from across disciplines, sectors and global regions, connecting global trends with practical experience and implementation.
Produced by the Inclusive Urban Futures Association, the podcast creates a space for dialogue across boundaries and borders — linking ideas with action, policy with practice, and ambition with delivery. It is a platform for exploring how inclusion can be embedded in the systems, institutions and investments that will shape the future of urban life.
