Upcoming CURes Events

Cities and the Environment Symposium

University Hall, Ahmanson Auditorium

The LMU Center for Urban Resilience (CURes) is delighted to invite you to join us at our inaugural Cities and the Environment symposium!

For 18 years, the CATE Journal has provided an international forum for urban researchers and practitioners to explore social-ecological theories, share relevant data, and exchange best practices. Peer-reviewed articles are open access for readers and include no page charges for contributing author. This has allowed for broad participation from academics and community-based practitioners from across the Global North and Global South—Volume 17 (2024) included 14 papers featuring cities from Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe. At the same time, the journal has promoted communities of practice with special issues focusing on topics such as urban rewilding, urban ecosystem management, urban forestry, and many more.
