Cities are ecosystems, as rain forests are. They are the result of a continuous flow of production (energy, materials, people) and return (waste, services, conflicts).
The Center for Sustainable Cities aims the convergence of disciplines and knowledges associated to the city, to build the Whole City Ecosystem. In this context, it is critical to understand its behavior, in order to evaluate the real impact, in terms of sustainability, of any action or event. The Center for Sustainable Cities embraces the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and seeks to further their implementation through research, education and outreach.
