Introduction

The 'Sustainable Cities 2008' conference aims to address the many inter-related aspects of the urban environment from transport and mobility to social exclusion and crime prevention. It is hoped that the meeting will build on the contributions made in previous conferences, which successfully managed to provide an international view of the problems facing modern cities and their solutions.

Description

The Sustainable City 2008 follows four very successful meetings held in Rio (2000); Spain (2002), Siena (2004) and Tallinn (2006). The Conferences attracted a large number of contributions from participants from different backgrounds and countries. The variety of backgrounds and experiences is one of the main reasons behind the success of the series. 

The Conference aims to reach city Planners, architects, environmental engineers and all academics, professionals and practitioners involved in the wide range of disciplines associated with creating a sustainable urban environment.
