Anticipatory Urbanism

Anticipatory Urbanism is an approach to city planning that focuses on predicting future trends and challenges—such as population growth, climate change, or technological advancements—and proactively designing urban spaces to address them. Instead of reacting to issues after they arise, it emphasizes foresight and strategic vision to create adaptable, resilient, and sustainable neighborhoods. This method aims to ensure cities can effectively respond to future needs, improve quality of life, and reduce risks by thoughtful planning based on informed forecasts and long-term thinking.
