The Leipzig Charter is a policy document for sustainable urban development in Europe. It has been further developed in preparation for the German EU Council Presidency and will be adopted by the EU Member States' ministers responsible for urban development at the end of 2020. What value will the New Leipzig Charter have for European cities in the future? What other ways are there to support urban development from a European level? And how can European Cities be inspired by the urban development in other continents?

In this podcast three urban experts discuss sustainable urban development in Europe: Anna Lisa Boni (Secretary General of Eurocities), Aša Rogelj (Head of the Urban Devel-opment and Land Management Division at the Slovenian Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning) and Mart Grisel (Director at the European Urban Knowledge Network).
