IUPF is an innovative initiative on the rise. It is “work in progress”. It builds on its prime resource: its global, inclusive, diverse and open membership. 

IUPF is a globally connected community of professionals in the fields of the urban realm, researchers, and students dedicated to shaping sustainable, inclusive, and resilient cities worldwide. Our work transcends borders, cultures, and disciplines—uniting voices, a broad demographic from every continent to advance the future of urban planning. Based on individual membership we also collaborate with other international associations and networks, as well as national and regional planning associations to amplify our impact, share expertise, and foster a truly global planning dialogue.

IUPF provides the setting - Real and Virtual Space - for active cooperation - Global Networking -  between our members who constitute the core driver of IUPF activities.
