Background

Melbourne, Australia, is regarded internationally as a liveable and engaging city. It boasts many examples of public and private development and community participation which have over time, built this enviable reputation.

Like all cities, Melbourne faces social, environmental and economic sustainability challenges in providing equitable access to services and systems.

Organisations which play roles in delivering future Melbourne as β€œa city worth living in”, are vitally interested in the discourse and practice around making places that respond to these challenges. They have agreed to host a conference which is intended to canvas the broad church of knowledge and experience amongst colleagues locally, nationally and internationally and to stimulate the transformation and integration of the multiple disciplines and agents who must ultimately collaborate to achieve these goals.
