Experimentation Platforms as Bridges to Urban Sustainability
Smart Cities, 2021 Despite immense efforts to realize diverse visions of the ‘smart city,’ municipalities still face manifold uncertainties of how governance and the tools of governance can best support public and regional value creation for achieving urban sustainability.

The condition of urban climate experimentation
Sustainability: Science, Practice, & Policy, 2023 As the trend of urban climate experimentation continues, many accounts now seek to identify how it can be harnessed toward responses of sufficient scale and magnitude for the crises at hand. The imperative is to move beyond experimentation.

COPING WITH THE DYNAMICS OF URBAN SUSTAINABILITY: POSITIONING URBAN EXPERIMENTATION PLATFORMS AS TOOLS FOR POLICY MAKING [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2021 This research considers the creation of resilient organizational models of urban governance to foster urban sustainability. Building on large-scale urban experimentation initiatives, we identify relevant factors in establishing urban experimentation with

Reframing places, communities and identities: social learning in urban experimentation
Sustainability: Science, Practice, & Policy, 2023 A central promise of urban experiments (UEs) is to create sites for social learning. However, research on such learning in sustainability transitions still lacks conceptual clarity and empirical evidence. This article helps to close this gap by analyzing

Urban Planning by Experiment: Practices, Outcomes, and Impacts
Urban Planning, 2021 The impact of urban experimentation on urban planning approaches is so far insufficiently assessed and discussed. This thematic issue sets out to investigate the possibilities and limitations of ‘urban planning by experiment,’ defined as an approach that

Experimentation or projectification of urban change? A critical appraisal and three steps forward
Urban Transformations, 2021 Urban experimentation has proliferated in recent years as a response to sustainability challenges and renewed pressures on urban governance. In many European cities, diverse and rapidly changing experimental forms (e.g. urban living laboratories, pilots,
