(TU Delft Real Estate Management) Vergara d'Alençon, L.M. (Universidad Diego Portales) Newton, C.E.L. (TU Delft Spatial Planning and Strategy) Contributor van der Watt, Anja (editor) Vergara, Luz María (editor) Pessoa, Igor (editor) Newton, Caroline (editor) Date 2024 Abstract In light of rapid urbanisation and the accelerating threats of climate change, scale and multitude are what set the Global North and South apart. Yet, as this course exposes, the issues faced by urban areas have resembling themes and characteristics, regardless of economic status or geographic location. Therefore, in the context of sustainable urban development, the binary dichotomy of the terms ‘Global North’ and ‘Global South’ must be contested. While a focus on Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia, and the MENA region, Rethink the City attempts to understand the transboundary nature of urban issues and provide a platform to gather insights beyond borders. It is only by learning from other narratives that we can collectively address the complex challenges ahead.
