Silk Cities Silk Cities is an independent contextual platform which connects dispersed existing knowledge and ideas about the quality of the built environment.

Silk Cities is an independent contextual platform for knowledge sharing and communication between the built environment professionals (e.g. urban designers, planners and community development professionals) based inside a country with their peers and established academics based outside who are interested in that country as a result of their ethnic origins or work. You can connect the existing knowledge and know-how within a country with high-profile, up-to-date international research. By communicating awareness, issues will be raised and ideas for solutions will be stimulated, and knowledge will be transferred amongst academics and practitioners in related disciplines, such as, urban design/planning, disaster risk reduction and reconstruction, community development, as well as urban management. There are many issues and solutions that need to be explored. We encourage knowledge sharing on urban development which in nature is multidisciplinary, forward-looking and challenging. As the starting point the platform focuses on:
o Historical Continuity
o Urban Design and Planning
o Reconstruction and Disaster Risk Reduction

Silk Cities is an ongoing project; with the help of its community a number of events and competitions will be introduced.
