Current Issue
The Urban Europe Research Alliance (UERA) organises its annual conference to address systemic and urgent issues in urban research, bringing together scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to advance knowledge and collaboration. Each year, the conference provides a platform to explore critical questions at the intersection of sustainability, climate action, and social justice, while also contributing to education and capacity-building in these fields.
In 2025, the conference took place in Rome at the National Research Council of Italy under the theme Sustainable and Climate-Neutral Cities for Inclusive and Equitable Urban Futures. It highlights the urgency of addressing today’s polycrisis while recognising the planetary dimension of urbanisation.
The 2025 UERA Conference featured 45 abstracts and full paper presentations, organized across five thematic sections, which structure this Book of Abstracts.
The complete proceedings are currently under preparation and will be published by Springer in 2026. The DOI for the Springer publication will be shared on this page once it is available. This proceedings employed a double-blind peer-review process.
