Symposium
What will the cities of the future be like? Málaga 2027 'The Urban Era: Towards the Sustainable City' proposes this as well as other challenges facing the city of the future such as the development of cities and sustainability.
Sustainability must be implemented from a systemic and multidimensional perspective that guarantees inclusive and balanced socioeconomic development. It will promote an integrated approach to the urban dimension within the territorial framework; the metabolism of cities with the territories emphasizing urban-rural links, to advance towards local-regional resilience.
Expo 2027 Malaga will be an opportunity for society to reflect on how cities should move towards sustainability. The increase of urbanization requires ensuring sustainable and inclusive urban development, thus reducing inequality; such an Expo is conceived as a global framework from which to share solutions that help all countries and cities to act in the right direction. Expo Malaga will be an example of sustainability and resilience, integrated into its urban and territorial context.
