CSIRO Future Cities

Australia’s cities are highly liveable, but face significant and growing pressures, including growing competition for investment and jobs. We offer a collaborative and evidence-based approach to unlock the benefits of urban sustainability through the application of science and technology across precinct, community and city-wide projects.

The ‘science of cities’ is about creating wider opportunities for experimentation; bringing together multiple stakeholders and sectors, to address urban challenges and foster learning about the effects of urban interventions in real world contexts.
