This year’s 15 assessment visits to our Urbanism Awards finalists will take place between 24th July – 13th September. With destinations including Italy, Sweden, Spain, Ireland and many places within the UK, Academicians and Young Urbanists are welcome to take part in this rewarding, shared learning experience.

More than just an opportunity to lend your expertise to one of our key activities, the visits are an inspirational way to pick up new ideas from a rich variety of places – find out what they are doing to make their place a success.

Join us on one or more of the visits to take a step back, think critically about how we overcome the challenges and opportunities facing all of our places, and take some important lessons away with you.
