INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
9-10 MARCH 2023
Bocconi University,
Room AS03
Via Röntgen 1
Milan
Registration will close on 9 March 2023 at 8:00AM.
The relevance of urban dimension is rapidly growing in shaping policies for sustainable development, as put in evidence by the inclusion of Goal 11 in the Agenda 2030 and the recent adoption of the EU Mission for 100 climate-neutral and smart cities. In this perspective, the role of urban research is fundamental in driving policy innovation. UERA is one of the key initiatives of JPI Urban Europe and rings together 58 European research organisations from 20 different countries committed to address the Driving Urban Transition pathways through the integration of environmental and socio-economic research in energy, mobility and circularity. Discussion will be focused on the role of research in supporting sustainable urban transition, considering an evolving institutional framework and innovative experiences.
