Abstract

Universities have an important role to play in supporting cities through transitions to sustainability, amongst many other issues facing citizens and decision makers. The London 2062 project invited academics and students of UCL, a multi-faculty university located in central London, and partners from across London to consider the key issues shaping the future of the city. Through a series of seminars, workshops and publications contributors were encouraged to draw on their expertise to identify the forces shaping London and to consider how these might play out over the next five decades. The outcomes reflect the diverse methods and contributors, ranging from design principles for climate change adaptation to a vision of London run by mega-football clubs. Unconstrained deliberation about the future by well-informed people helps to clarify the key issues that are currently at stake in the city, as well as pointing out what these might mean in fifty years.
