In this volume scholars from around the world discuss the
innovative forms of collaboration between public and private actors
that contribute to making our cities more liveable. It offers
helpful insights into the practices of partnerships and the ways in
which partnerships can contribute to a more liveable urban
environment. The liveability of our cities is a topic of increasing
relevance and urgency. The world's cities are becoming congested
and polluted, putting pressure on affordable housing and causing
safety to become a major problem. Urban governments are unable to
address these major challenges on their own, and thus they seek
cooperation with other governments, companies, civil society
organizations, and citizens. By focusing on examples such as
greenery in the city, affordable housing, safety, neighbourhood
revitalization, and 'learning by doing' in urban living labs, this
book asks two key questions. How do partnerships between public and
private actors contribute to the liveability of cities? Under what
conditions are partnerships successful, and when do they fail to
yield the desired results?
