======Four perspectives establish a vision for Perth in 2050====== Excerpt from report: \\ "Brief tied to sustainable development goals and World Cities Day 2018. Based on "maximizing health and well-being of citizens, as well as enviornmental and economic prudence...for our cities to be data driven and responsive, and citizen-centric at the same time"" \\ ^ Quick Facts ^^ | Report location: |[[https://foresight.arup.com/publications/perth-2050/| source]] | | Language: | English | | Publisher: |[[encyclopedia:arup|ARUP]] | | Publication date: |November 1, 2018 | | Authors: |Ryan Falconer, Dylan Melsom, Zoe Wilks, Kate Buckle, Effie Fox, Tim Williams | | Time horizon: | 2046 - 2050 | | Geographic focus: |australia | | Page count: |15 | =====Methods===== "A workshop identified challenges that Perth would face in the future and the chalenged four people in our Perth office to imagine a future that responds to those challenges." Scenarios are based on sustainable development goals. Methodology/how they arrived at these scenarios are not clear.\\ =====Key Insights===== Drivers mentioned include: * Data Driven Cities * Citizen Centric Cities * Water Scarcity * Sustainable Mobility ====Scenarios==== Each scenario addresses three Sustainable Development Goals and includes key steps for how we get there. - Digital Services and Districts: Common sensing towards a perceptive Perth * Perth is a 'smart city' able to detect and respond to anomolous events. It can connect with citizens and enhance their day-to-day experience as they move through the city. - Seamless and integrated mobility: Transcity 2050: How we made public transport king * Perth has successfully transitioned from a car-dominated city to a 'transcity' in which public transportation is king. This shift started thanks to a radical shift in public policy, which dedicated 80% of the transportation budget to public transit. Citizens have given up some level of convenience that cars provided for a more relaxed and experience-focused approach to transportation. The construction of transportation hubs set off a chain-reaction of private investment in local communities. - Sustainable Urban Water Management: water off the grid * A WaterWise program assembles a task force to build a sustainable and resilient water system in Perth. Homes have personal off-grid water re-use and treatment systems. Clean energy watercraft carry commuters up the Swan River. Landscaping uses native plants that require very little water and upkeep from the city. Stormwater collection systems treat and recycle rain water to the local areas. - Resilient urban systems: symbiosis of city: a pattern in the matter of size * The city is seen as a living organism. Human systems exist symbiotically within Perth. Citizens chose restorative, renewable, and resilient municipal systems. Additionally, urban growth was limited. The city resolved to improve life on the land they were already using rather than continually expand. Perth has become among the most resilient, sustainable, and biodiverse cities in the world. =====Additional Viewpoints===== Categories: {{tag>2018_publication_year}} | {{tag>2040s_time_horizon}} | {{tag>2046_time_horizon}} | {{tag>2050_time_horizon}} | {{tag>2050s_time_horizon}} | {{tag>English_publication_language}} | {{tag>australia}} | {{tag>australia_geographic_scope}} | {{tag>cities}} | {{tag>citizen-centric_urban_systems}} | {{tag>community}} | {{tag>data-driven}} | {{tag>digital}} | {{tag>knowledge}} | {{tag>mobility}} | {{tag>perth}} | {{tag>skills}} | {{tag>sustainable}} | {{tag>water}} | {{tag>scenario_methodology}} | {{tag>report}} ~~DISCUSSION~~
