Book Launch: Towards a New Urban Practice

The Bartlett DPU is hosting the London launch of "Towards a New Urban Practice" collectively written by Faculty and staff at the Indian Institute of Human Settlement (IIHS).  In 2022, the Urban Fellows Programme at IIHS, Bengaluru, completed six years with 227 graduates. The book marks this moment as a point of reflection.

Using the programme as an archive, the book reflects on questions of contemporary urban knowledge, interdisciplinary and southern urban pedagogy, what it means to teach about and from practice, and how our thinking on pedagogy needs to be equally rooted in questions of institutional design, operations, admissions, and the political economy of employment for new urban practitioners.

In the book:

India's Urban Transition | Admissions | Outreach | Operations | UFP Curriculum | Practica | Skills and Methods | Projects | Integrative Case | Learner Reflections | Alumni Trajectories
