| Description | Perhaps the single most important challenge for the twenty-fi rst century is to work towards a more resilient and sustainable urbanized world. In this global strategic urban context, resilience concerns the capacity of an urban system – including its natural, built, social and economic elements – to manage change, learn from diffi cult situations and be in a position to rebound after experiencing signifi cant stress or shock, while sustainability questions whether or not certain aspects of our daily activities, and the systems within which they operate, can be continued indefi nitely into the future, again from a social, economic and environmental perspective.
