Cities are central to economic development and the entrepreneurial and technological advances that improve the human condition. But urban density has a downside: it can exacerbate pollution, overburden infrastructure and public services, and increase the potential for crime and violence. The NYU Marron Institute champions a new model of academic research to address these challenges and improve the opportunities available to the billions of urban residents around the world.
