Working Groups
Working Groups are the core of the APRU Sustainable Cities and Landscapes Conferences and represent an important opportunity for delegates to participate in collaborative research in partnerships with members of the APRU network, develop new researcher collaboration and cross-disciplinarity, and contribute towards finding solutions to the pressing problems of this century.
The APRU-SCL has established Working Groups around strategic themes that are evolving from conference to conference to reflect the key issues and pressures for our cities and landscapes across the Pacific Rim:
- Water & Wastewater
- Civic Engagement and Community Design
- Smart Cities
- Vulnerable, Resilient and Climate Change Justice Communities
- Future Energy Landscapes
- Landscape and Human Health
- Sustainable Urban Design
- Urban-Rural Linkages
- Urban Landscape Biodiversity
- Children, Youth and Environment
- Pandemics, Humanitarian Emergencies & Health
