Whose City?

WHOSE CITY… is a podcast produced at the University of California, San Diego Design Lab.

Post-pandemic shifts in urban living, the digital revolution, social media, smart vehicles, and new technologies are altering the way city dwellers move around, inhabit, work and think about their urban lifestyles. Meanwhile, climate change, escalating housing costs, shortages of land, homelessness, urban sprawl, air pollution, and scarcity of natural resources challenge our futures.
