Enabling the City is a collaborative book that focuses on how
interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary processes of knowledge
production may contribute to urban transformation at a local level
in the 21st century, striking a balance between enthusiastic
support for such transformational potential and a cautious note
regarding the persistent challenges to the ethos as well as the
practice of inter and transdisciplinarity. The rich stories reflect
different research and local practice cultures, exploring issues
such as ageing, community, health and dementia, public space,
energy, mobility cultures, heritage, housing, re-use, and renewal,
as well as more universal questions about urban sustainability and
climate change, and perhaps most importantly, education. Against
this backdrop, aspirations for the 21st century are related to the
international, national, and local agendas expressed in the
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and in the New Urban Agenda
(NUA), raising fundamental questions of how to enable development.
We highlight aspects of transformative learning and ways of
knowing, critical to any collaborative and participatory process.
