Event description: 

Join us for the opening of HOW TO MAKE A CITY, a retrospective exhibition celebrating urban transformation and exploring how bold, local action can spark global momentum. As urban challenges intensify, this exhibition highlights 25 trailblazing projects recognized by the WRI Ross Center Prize for Cities that advance inclusive, sustainable change across diverse themes and geographies. More than a record of achievement, the exhibition is a platform for exchange and collective imagination.

We invite the public, researchers and urban leaders to consider what the next decade of urban transformation demands. Cities already hold many of the solutions. What we need now is the will, collaboration and investment to bring them to scale. Come connect, engage, and explore proven approaches and cross-cutting lessons for accelerating and deepening transformative change worldwide.
