Cities: Skylines - Radical Urbanism

What would a green new deal look like for cities?

This two part livestream hosted by Justin Roczniak explores ideas for the revitalisation of Carlingdon-by-Sea, a fictional Northern town modelled for The World Transformed using the urban planning simulation game Cities: Skylines. In part one a panel of academics and community activists give pre-recorded lectures. In part two, we present a live discussion on the changes proposed in the simulation.

This event is created by The World Transformed and supported by Open City.
