Reporting on the innovative, transdisciplinary research
on sustainable urbanisation being undertaken by Mistra
Urban Futures, a highly influential research centre
based in Sweden, this book builds on the Policy Press
title Rethinking Sustainable Cities to make a significant
contribution to evolving theory about comparative urban
research.

Highlighting important methodological experiences from
across a variety of diverse contexts in Africa and Europe,
this book surveys key experiences and summarises
lessons learned from the MUF’s global research
platforms. It demonstrates best practice for developing
and deploying different forms of transdisciplinary coproduction,
covering topics including neighbourhood
transformation and housing justice, sustainable urban
and transport development, urban food security and
cultural heritage.
