Thus, both the benefits and negative externalities associated with urbanization will be unequally shared across countries, or even within cities. This rapid rate of urbanization poses new economic, social, and environmental challenges. Rapidly evolving cities, such as those in the UAE, and the growing needs for mobility, energy, water, and other scarce resources demand new sustainable approaches for the design, development, and management of urban networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Inspired by both, Abu Dhabi\u2019s 2030 vision and NYUAD\u2019s signature research themes, the NYUAD\u2019s Center for Interacting Urban Networks (CITIES \u2013 \u0645\u062f\u0646) aims to address those challenges. In short, CITIES is an interdisciplinary research center dedicated to advance urban science and promote cutting-edge research that leads to tangible improvements fostering sustainable, resilient, and equitable cities.
