Migration and Cities

This project aims to combine data and architecture services into a platform that helps sustain property rights beyond existing individualized models.

This project addresses the global challenge of internal force displacement, rural-urban and inter-urban migrations and disruptive urban growth.

We put forward a new theoretical framework to study the development of mega-city regions and metropolitan areas under the recent national strategy of new-type urbanisation and rural vitalisation.

We aim to understand the dynamics of China’s internal migration and urbanisation by developing a socio-spatial framework and applying it to multi-scalar empirical investigations.
