Urbanisation Domain

The urbanisation domain is designed to engage scholars deeply with the multifaceted aspects of urbanisation, particularly within the Indian context. The objective is to expose students to a broad spectrum of urban issues, fostering a comprehensive analysis of policy concerns and strategies pertinent to the urban sector. Scholars will explore the full scope of public policy and enhance their skills in debating, developing strong arguments, and presenting their ideas effectively. Each session concentrates on specific urban policy issues like housing, mobility, and financing. The course culminates with scholars tasked with designing a detailed plan or policy for a city of their choice, aiming to outline potential growth and development through strategic public policy interventions. This approach broadens understanding and equips scholars with practical urban policy planning and implementation skills.
