The
EcoEdge - Urban Environments or Urban Disasters

and international designers are responding to the challenges
of social, economic and ecologically sustainable development
in many varied and innovative ways. ECOEDGE will explore the
question of whether cities can rightly be classified as Urban
Environments or Urban Disasters. Contact CityEDGE:
