H. Koon Wee will be leading a seminar for students of the Royal College of Arts, MA City Design Program, led by Dr. Tarsha Finney.
With a global urban population of four billion and 28 megacities, urban life is experiencing momentous change. New social groups are emerging, populations are ageing, family units are extending and dispersing, work is becoming casualised and whole communities have moved online. At the same time, dangerous new social divides are appearing on the periphery of cities, between different cultures, and now also between different generations.
