Integrated Urban-Rural Planning and Governance
In China, and many other countries across the world, rapid urbanisation processes have produced unevenly developed landscapes made up of urban growth centres and disadvantaged hinterlands. The first international conference within the framework of the Sino-German research and development project Urban-Rural Assembly (URA) takes this as a starting point towards a global exploration of the political, ecological and social relevance of integrated approaches in urban-rural planning and governance.
