The MSc in Global Urban Development and Planning enhances your knowledge of worldwide urban development challenges, with a special emphasis on cities in the global South. Urban centers across Africa, Asia, and Latin America face rapid expansion difficulties, while communities in developing regions grapple with issues like poverty, informal settlements, inequality, climate impacts, safety concerns, and weakened social bonds. This program also benefits development practitioners aiming to expand their urban-focused skills, as well as social development experts from nonprofit, corporate, or government sectors. You will: concentrate on sustainable and fair urban planning approaches for the global South, engage with contemporary theoretical and practical discussions in urban development, and develop abilities to collect, analyze, and utilize diverse data sources effectively.
