【讲座内容摘要】：
Inclusive Cities in Asia：
Despite the spectacular economic growth of Asian economies in the recent decades, poverty and inequality remain major development challenges. The lecture will help develop an understanding of the problems related to urban poverty and inequality, and how they are being and can be addressed in Asian cities.
Sustainable Cities in Asia：
While cities have led economic growth in Asia, they have not paid sufficient attention to problems related to urban environmental quality and liveability. Moreover, pollution and climate change threaten Asia’s successful economic model. The lecture will help develop an understanding of sustainable cities, the challenges cities face due to climate change, and how these challenges are being addressed.
