The DNA of Cities is a global and collaborative effort convened by Professor Greg Clark CBE and Dr Caitlin Morrissey. We wish to thank the contributors who have generously shared their time and expertise with us. This project would not be possible without these conversations.
Professor Greg Clark CBE
My love affair with cities began growing up in London and living in Mexico City and New York once I was free to roam.
During 30 years as a global advisor, working with OECD, Brookings Institution and Urban Land Institute, I've visited 300 cities, written 10 books and 100 reports on urbanisation and leadership.
One question I've always asked myself is why does every city smell different?
Dr Caitlin Morrissey
I am an urban researcher whose work is underpinned by a deep curiosity in how and where big decisions about the future of cities are made and who they represent.
I have a PhD in Urban Geography from the University of Manchester and the University of Melbourne, an MSc in Urban Design and City Planning from The Bartlett, University College London, and a BA in Geography from King's College London (with the University of Toronto).
