The ShoUrbanism project accumulates the latest cases and research on smart, inclusionary, and resilient design and development of the areas by the big water. As the water does not know political boundaries, the knowledge of how to live with it brings benefits to any community. Creating this space for a dialogue will help sharing the best practices and finding new approaches collaboratively.
