CSIRO Urban Living Labs

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 to address urban challenges and foster learning about the effects of urban interventions in real world contexts. Find out how Urban Living Lab offers a new way for researchers, industry, community and government to co-innovate; moving our cities into a more liveable, sustainable and resilient future.
