Using mixed methods research including archival research, case studies, and interviews, this book examines how urban innovation approaches and strategies progress through their inception, initiation, implementation, institutionalisation, integration with infrastructure, and eventual impact. The analysis reveals how technologies, people, and institutions interact across socio-technical systems to achieve economic, environmental, and social sustainability. Challenges, critical success factors and potential pitfalls are highlighted. How are cities leveraging healthy, liveable, and green neighbourhoods to address current, complex and interconnected urban challenges? Review the solutions development experience of six global and liveable cities with different culture, context, and resources — Chicago, Melbourne, Seoul, Shenzhen, Vancouver, and Vienna.The book concludes with an Urban Innovation Action Framework, aligned with UN-Habitat key considerations for sustainable development. The action framework identifies nine levers for enabling healthy, liveable, and green neighbourhoods — capital attraction, citizen participation, collaborative governance, communication, connectivity, contact with nature, consolidated climate action, coordination, and culture. The book is essential reading for city and sub-city stakeholders including government authorities, private sector developer organisations, local businesses, residents and communities interested in the transition to healthy, liveable, green neighbourhoods as catalysts for change in urban sustainable development.
