Urban Identity and Evolution

In Episode 1, we learnt that thinking about cities as having DNA can help us all to participate in really important conversations about what makes each city so unique. This time, our fantastic panel of urban experts tell us what ​ingredients they would look for in the genetic code of a city. We are also introduced to the idea that all places share certain qualities as they go through the process of urbanisation. 

We wish to thank Dr Jaana Remes, Professor Pete Tyler, Geerte Udo, Associate Professor Ellie Cosgrave and Professor Michele Acuto for helping us to decode The DNA of Cities.
