Urban 2.0 Profiles and Papers

Why Urban 2.0 Papers are being created

The purpose of producing Urban 2.0 Papers is to provide information about a range of cities, which is hoped will be of interest to anyone who wants to learn about the challenges different cities face around the world, and how these cities are overcoming them. 

Each Paper uses the Urban 2.0 system to consider and unpack different aspects, including challenges some need to overcome and how some are thriving.


This section will soon be populated with Papers and supporting Executive Summaries. All Papers listed below are currently under development. The list of Papers will be added to over time.


These papers are independently produced. There is no affiliation to any city or municipal teams, or any other organisations. 

The linked Suredis Cities website contains sections that provide general overviews of cities and towns in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe and Oceania.
