2) Facilitate the formation of active collaborations between participants to achieve a tangible outcome.
3) Develop a sustainable network of researchers across Japan and the UKIn 2013 this will be achieved by the delivery of a school in two parts, both conducted in English.
The first part will be hosted by the University of Bristol and the second by Kyoto University, both in collaboration also with The University of Newcastle. The theme of the school will be
Urban Sustainability and Resilience.
