    摘要、提要註: "At the current time, many issues and problems within sustainable urban development are managed within traditional disciplinary and organizational structures. However, problems such as, climate change, resource constraints, poverty and social tensions all exceed current compartmentalization of policy-making, administration and knowledge production. This book provides a better understanding of how researchers and practitioners together can co-produce knowledge to better contribute to solving the complex challenges of reaching sustainable urban futures. It is written for academic and professional audiences working with urban planning and sustainable cities around the world. Co-producing knowledge for sustainable cities is presented, by way of introduction, as a non-linear, collaborative approach to knowledge production which combines interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary and cross sector approaches to societal problem solving. Examples are taken from five cities including Cape Town, Gothenburg, Greater Manchester, Kisumu, and Melbourne. Each city chapter discusses the drivers behind knowledge co-production and gives examples of activities and approaches that have been used to promote sustainable urban futures. Each chapter is written to promote mutual learning from the approaches that are already in use. Building upon these city cases, the conclusions outline topics for future research that can strengthen the promotion and implementation of the co-production of knowledge for urban sustainability across diverse urban contexts"--
