Today's date is Thursday, March 28, 2024
Water Sensitive Cities Seminar Series - August 2013 : The inaugural seminar of the Water Sensitive Cities Seminar Series for the CRC for Water Sensitive Cities (Western Region). Other events...
Scope: How do you creatively plan for a population of 62 million by 2100? Australia’s current major city planning frameworks only account for an extra 5.5 million people. Whether we want a ‘Big Australia’ or not, Australia’s 21st century is likely to see rapid and continual growth – if we want liveable, high performance cities and regional centres we need to think outside the box.

Speaker: Dr Julian Bolleter is an Assistant Professor at the Australian Urban Design Research Centre (AUDRC) at the University of Western Australia. His role at the AUDRC includes teaching a master’s program in urban design and conducting urban design research and design projects.

Julian and his colleague Richard Weller have recently completed a book entitled ‘Made in Australia: The Future of Australian Cities’, which scopes the urban implications of Australia’s population reaching 62.2m by 2101.

Event: This is the inaugural seminar of the Water Sensitive Cities Seminar Series for the CRC for Water Sensitive Cities (Western Region), facilitating knowledge sharing amongst CRC-WSC participants and the wider community.

Following the seminar, light refreshments will be served from 5:00pm in the nearby foyer of the School of Environmental Systems Engineering. A map of the venues and parking may be found at http://goo.gl/maps/KsFBJ
