Divided Cities
Understanding Intra-urban Inequalities
This report provides an assessment of spatial inequalities and segregation in cities
and metropolitan areas from multiple perspectives. The chapters in the report focus
on a subset of OECD countries and non-member economies, and provide new insights on
cross-cutting issues for city neighbourhooods, such as the patterns of segregation
across income groups, migrant concentration and diversity across cities of different
sizes, the role of public transport accessibility in widening intra-city inequalities,
and the expected path dependency on outcomes related to segregation. The report also
discusses methodological alternatives for measuring different dimensions of inequality
and segregation across cities, and highlights the role of public policies in bridging
urban divides and the relevance of the scale of analysis in order to make sound international
comparisons.
A seminal event in the campaign’s trajectory, this conference convenes leading experts, scholars, and practitioners for an international dialogue to further elevate municipal fiscal health as an issue of global importance.
