Can we make cities more sustainable, resilient, livable, and healthy by moving beyond a human-centric design philosophy?
About this Event

More-Than-Human Cities is a concept that recognizes and incorporates the needs and agency of non-human species—plants, animals, fungi, and microbes—in urban planning and design.

Join us in exploring this theme at our next gathering, which will take place on Wednesday, January 28th, 2026 in Hunt Library on NC State’s Centennial Campus.

This symposium is jointly organized and sponsored by NC State University’s Office of University Interdisciplinary Programs, NC State University’s Peter A. Pappas Real Estate Development Program, and the NC State University Libraries.
