School of Cities

Welcome to the School of Cities' YouTube Channel!

The School of Cities is a unique multidisciplinary hub for urban research, education, and engagement creating new and just ways for cities and their residents to thrive. Based at the University of Toronto and in a fast-growing, culturally diverse, and economically dynamic urban region, the School of Cities supports leading scholars, practitioners, and community members spanning disciplines and lived experiences to co-create new understandings, policies, and practices.

The future is urban, with close to 70% of the world’s population expected to live in cities by the year 2050. The School of Cities fosters opportunity, collaboration, insight, and knowledge exchange with a global reach, playing a critical role in addressing climate change and justice, migration and belonging, inequality and democracy, and the world’s collective ability to address urgent urban challenges.
