Cities and Urban Development
As global population growth increasingly concentrates in cities, creating productive, sustainable, and safe cities is key to an inclusive and resilient future for urban residents.
We work with citizens, municipalities, service providers, and the private sector to reimagine sustainable and climate-resilient urban development. By connecting knowledge and experience across our global experts, we help clients solve their most complex challenges, from high-performance buildings and infrastructure to integrated planning and service delivery reform, to resilient communities and environments.
Our work combines city diagnostics, strategic planning, and bankable project preparation with resilience. We place strong emphasis on municipal capacity building, stakeholder engagement, and sustainable financing models to make cities more inclusive, climate-smart, and investment-ready. Our urban development work includes resilient infrastructure, climate-proofing, disaster risk reduction, long-term sustainability, and critical infrastructure protection. We assist fast-growing cities with better planning and green urban growth services to manage rapid urbanization and climate change adaptation.
