ISPIM Future Agenda - Six key challenges and major innovation opportunities...Future Agenda
A keynote at ISPIM conference in Porto on 20 June 2016 sharing insights from the latest Future Agenda programme. Focuses initially on the 6 key challenges for for next decade for future of people, place, power, belief, behaviour and business. Then shares some views from global discussions on the world in 2025 before adding in 6 major innovation opportunities for the next decade include food waste, data marketplaces, sanitation, ethical machines and deeper collaboration.
This is shared with the innovation community to hopefully inspire new actions.
Supported by The Rockefeller Foundation, this ebook highlights a dozen of CityLab's favorite stories from the 2014 series on how Americans will travel tomorrow.
Many cities are attempting to reduce congestion through innovative transport policies and projects. This report explores the challenges city leaders face in choosing the right combination of solutions to address their short- and long-term urban mobility challenges. It aims to provide direction on how city leaders can navigate through these challenges and how they can work together with community groups and the private sector to transform their cities for the future.
The Rockefeller Foundation and the Pratt Center for Community Development have coalesced around a transit solution called Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)—a high-performance system that combines the permanence, speed, and reliability of rail, with the flexibility of buses, at a fraction of the cost of a subway system. In the Foundation and Pratt’s report, Mobility and Equity for New York’s Transit-Starved Neighborhoods: The Case for Full-Featured Bus Rapid Transit, BRT is discussed as an affordable, reliable, and practical way of getting outer borough residents from point A to point B.

The purpose of this report is to take 50 of the world’s most prominent cities and look at how viable they are as places to live, their environmental impact, their financial stability, and how these elements complement one another.
All 50 of these brilliantly different cities are in various stages of evolution – some being further along the sustainability journey than others. Each possesses its own geolocation and cultural distinctions but shares common urban challenges in the areas of job creation, mobility, resiliency and improving the quality of life of its residents.

The fifth edition of the report ranks Stockholm first followed by London, Paris, Singapore and Copenhagen.
The 2014 edition of the Networked Society City Index examines and ranks 40 cities from around the world, looking at their performance, challenges and opportunities in terms of ICT, sustainability and development. The extensive research gives us a glimpse into the future of the city.
The report also continues to explore the connection between ICT maturity and triple bottom line development in cities around the world.
One of the key findings from the report is the fact that cities with a low ICT maturity tend to be improving their ICT maturity faster than high performing cities, indicating a catch-up effect. Many cities also have the opportunity to leapfrog by avoiding expensive and increasingly obsolete physical infrastructure and instead move straight ahead to advanced mobile technology.
Stockholm’s top ranking is thanks to its well-developed ICT infrastructure, extremely well-developed open data and e-services and high-quality access to both fixed and mobile broadband, thanks to extensive infrastructure rollouts.

This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.

13. • Spatial segregation: the geographical over-concentration of
households with a similar income level
• The concentration of similar households in space is a natural
phenomenon.
– Spatial segregation can foster positive externalities for those living in affluent and
high quality neighbourhoods (Morrison, 2015)
– Growing up in an area where disadvantages are concentrated can be a life-long
obstacle to opportunities available (Chetty & Hendren, 2015)
High inequality within cities can translate in
high level of spatial segregation
14. Levels of income segregation vary strongly
across cities – even within countries

19. How to promote inclusive growth in cities?
1. Fostering quality jobs for all
2. Improving equitable access to education in cities
3. Building more inclusive urban housing markets
4. Offering accessible, affordable and sustainable transport
5. Promoting healthy neighbourhoods and reliable public transport
20. • Gather a solid evidence base of outcome indicators on the different
aspects of people’s lives
• Build partnerships among stakeholders around common strategic
projects
• Target policy interventions on the right geographical scale (which
can range from neighbourhood scale to the metropolitan scale)
• Make sure that participatory processes are truly inclusive
• Tap innovative sources of financing
• Use the potential of digitalisation for urban inclusion
