Inspiring guest lecture by Dr. Luis Inostroza

May 24, 2023

Dr. Luis Inostroza gave an inspiring lecture at the geographic colloquium at the University of Würzburg on the 23rd of May. His thought provoking talk titled “The urban ecosystem. Can cities be sustainable at all?” postulated that at the beginning of the 21st century, the urban challenge remains more epistemological than operational. We thank Luis for stimulating the critical discourse about the status quo of research towards planetary urbanization.
