Urbanism Beyond 2020 is a collection of essays exploring questions triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic: Why is city making a health project? How are ecological and human wellbeing interrealted? How can leadership and governance help bridge the gaps in our unjust cities? How can we renew our relationship with dwellings and neighbourhoods ? How resilient and adaptable are our cities during uncertain times ? Amidst climate change and global warming, is the pandemic a prelude of the challenges to come ? Going across nations and geo-political terrains, the reflections in this volume span a wide range of topics - ecology, wildlife, social justice, vernacular habitats, the water crisis, public space, urban density, informal economies, governance, religion and urban art. They remind us why the pointers to our future will not emerge exclusively from affluent nations or less developed socities alone, why we live in an interconnected world and why this pandemic is a crucial period to reexamine the impact of our cities on our planet's future.
