Kinshasa, DRC: Africa’s next megacity, but for whom?

🚨 Only 7.8% of housing is considered decent, while luxury developments remain out of reach for most. Urgent reforms are needed to put people over profit. Explore our new report with @iied.bsky.social: cic.nyu.edu/resources/so...

A Guardian opinion piece argues cities from Barcelona to Paris show how women leaders have advanced safer, greener, more inclusive public spaces by prioritizing care, mobility and access over car-dominated planning.

[8/8] On l’aura compris, planifier une ville juste suppose de dépasser le citadin abstrait. Parents, couples et personnes seules n’ont ni les mêmes besoins ni les mêmes contraintes. L’urbanisme doit devenir plus situé, plus fin et plus inclusif. #geography #urbanmobility #parenthood #inclusivecities

Here's someone I haven't come across in a long time. Welcome @iamstevenpedigo.bsky.social. He's added to my #inclusivecities starter pack.

So it's been quiet and haven't added anyone else to the #InclusiveCities starter pack. If there is anyone else you think I should add, pass them my way.

Now that there are over 2M Bluesky users, there has to be academics, journos, and leaders here who talking about #HousingPolicy, #InclusiveCities, #ClimateMigration and #AI effects on #Cities, and #CulturalIntelligence - all from Canadian, Australian, European perspectives. #EMEA #ANZ #Canada

Through visionary leadership and collaborative efforts, we can sculpt cities that are equitable, prosperous, and sustainable for generations to come.

Any other thoughts to add to the #inclusivecities discussion?

It's not just a planning problem.

It's an economic development problem.

It's a public health problem.

It's an environmental problem.

It's a sustainable transportation problem

It's an inequity problem.

People are so siloed in these conversations, they end up getting labelled and pigeonholed -rightly or wrongly.

If you understand #InclusiveCities, you understand the strategic policy, land use and economic solutions. Then again, I'm a centrist.

This is a policy that I can jive with, especially considering the number of vacant/underutilized office space that exist. These are the efficient land use decisions planners should be advocating for while solving the #HousingCrisis. #InclusiveCities. Look to Calgary as an example.

New from me at TVO: a Liberal bill would make it (modestly) easier to do office-to-residential conversions in Ontario, while a new Gensler report suggests ways to do so intelligently. www.tvo.org/article/opin...

For these reasons, I will never call myself as an urbanist rather a strategic, culturally intelligent and inclusive city-builder. #InclusiveCities
