Communities
Connected Urban Development has a core aim to deliver scalable technology solutions to provide practical solutions to climate change, and the trends towards global urbanization. The participation of CUD in online communities forms a crucial medium to the delivery of this aim. Currently, CUD is engaged in the following forums, in Cisco, between the Cities in the program, and in external online communities;
CUD Community Forum
The delivery of a collaboration platform for the CUD Cities is part of Cisco's commitment to the CUD Program. To this end, Cisco has provided a Cisco Webex online collaboration environment to promote sharing across the Cities within the program, and to enable program activities to be shared across Cisco, the Cities and other CUD partners.
A 'Cities Planning Dashboard' for the CUD Solutions Toolkit, Cities project updates, and milestones deliverables is a prime application of this 'CUD Online Community Forum'.
This operates in a secure, online format where membership will be limited to the Cities core CUD team, and other extended members of the respective organizations, as appropriate.

CUD related blogs, and forum discussions feature throughout the discussions;
