A workshop in the conference “THE RISE OF ASIA IN GLOBAL HISTORY AND PERSPECTIVE: Covid-19 from Asia to the world: what assessment and what perspective for a common future?”
With the continuous increase of urbanisation
and concentration of population in urban areas worldwide, it is worthwhile to
set-up and develop an international network of UDW (Urban Development Watch).
It will allow to identify the challenges in a given urban area, to compare with
other urban areas, to learn each other among the "watchers", to see
the problems at national, regional and/or global levels.
The object of watch is a geographical
area/locality/territory (town, city, agglomeration, urban/suburban zone). The
watch may be focused on one or more sectors: culture, ecology, economy, politic
and/or religion/spirituality, etc.
The workshop is open to individual and group
paper presentations. Those willing to present their papers are invited to
submit their proposals until December 31, 2021.
