How to work with us

A new approach to urban policy development

Are you a policymaker looking for support with urban challenges?  

Cities that Work is a free resource to policymakers in low- and middle-income countries. We work with practitioners to apply cross-country evidence to specific city challenges, including policy notes, workshops with experts, as well as peer reviews and advice on new policies and laws.

Reach out to us at [email protected] to work with us. 

Are you a researcher interesting in working on urban economics questions in low- and middle-income countries? Or looking for relevant sub-national data in an IGC country? 

Cities that Work helps to connect researchers to relevant policy challenges and to help them access the necessary data to conduct this analysis. Reach out to us at [email protected] with your research ideas and data needs.
