LuceSEA: Harnessing Transformative Potentials of Southeast Asian Urbanization

Description: Urbanization brings problems, pitfalls, and promises. It is possible to transform cities for the better by harnessing urbanization’s positive potentials while mitigating and eliminating its existing, emerging, and often intensifying unintended and adverse impacts. These include uneven access to opportunities and services, inequitable development, environmental degradation, and social polarization, among others.
