Many cities struggle to accelerate processes of urban change. The challenges they face are complex, networked and don’t respect the silos of departments. That is why mobility transitions take longer than needed, or why cities have a hard time making their citizens feel at home. Many strategies stall because they lack a clear, actionable pathway forward. That’s where our Urban Change Strategy comes in—helping you bridge the gap between ambition and real-world implementation.

We use evidence-based models like Theory of Change and Transition Management to map out how transformation happens, identifying the key interventions needed to accelerate impact. Through urban change labs, participatory workshops, and real-world experiments, we bring together policymakers, community frontrunners, and experts to co-create solutions that are both visionary and practical.

Our approach doesn’t just generate ideas—it builds momentum. We turn insights into action, aligning stakeholders around a shared narrative and creating strategic roadmaps that guide decision-making.

Development, outline and follow up on change strategies

We help cities and organizations critically review, remake and design from scratch transition plans that can accelerate urban transformation. By fostering collaboration, adaptability, and systemic thinking, we create pathways for long-term impact.

Guidance to stakeholders from ideation to real-world change

We support municipalities, developers, and communities in executing on their change strategies. We align diverse actors—from policymakers to grassroots leaders—ensuring that transformations are both strategic and community-driven.

Design and implementation of experiments and pilot testings

We integrate global best practices with local realities to develop urban change labs, participatory workshops, real-life experiments and other activities to help cities move from ambition to measurable transformation.
