Description

Urban ARC is the Annual Research Conference of the Indian Institute for Human Settlements (IIHS). The fourth edition of Urban ARC, ‘Equal Cities’, focussed on the conceptual, theoretical and practical understanding of notions of equality and equity in the context of a rapidly urbanising world. Panels engaged with the idea of equity and equality through a range of lenses, across theory and praxis, across geographical and spatial contexts, and discipline and methodologies. The conference was held from 16 to 18 January 2020 at the IIHS Bengaluru City Campus. These Conference Proceedings feature the extended abstracts submitted by the selected participants for Urban ARC 2020.
