Housing is in crisis in cities worldwide—but the problem isn't just building enough units. It's about location, land, and how metropolitan governments coordinate across municipal boundaries. When affordable housing concentrates on urban fringes, residents face longer commutes, reduced job access, and increased household burden. Without metropolitan coordination, municipalities act independently, fragmenting land markets and delaying critical interventions until housing pressure intensifies.
This session brings together metropolitan governments to show what happens when housing policy focuses on connecting people to opportunity, not just delivering units. It will be held in English, at 3.00PM CET.
