ABOUT

Real estate investment and development are key processes that shape contemporary cities. Nonetheless, meaningful engagement between scholars from the fields of Urban Studies, Spatial Planning and Real Estate is rare. At the same time, stereotypes attached to both public and private actors working in the property sector may hamper successful collaboration. 

​

The aim of the Property Webinar Series is to foster interdisciplinary and inter-professional discussions. In several thematic sessions, the webinar series brings together scholars from different disciplinary backgrounds and property industry leaders. 

​

The webinar series intends to showcase how a joint discussion between scholars from different disciplines with property industry leaders and public sector officials can lead to fruitful conversations and potential future research endeavours.

​

The webinar series was initiated by Dr. Sara Özogul and Nagwa Kady, and has been developed in close collaboration with Prof. Dr. Tuna Tasan-Kok, Dr. Gert-Joost Peek, Andre Legarza and Mariam Hussain. The project is supported by the University of Amsterdam's Centre for Urban Studies (CUS) and the Amsterdam School of Real Estate (ASRE), and is affiliated with the Urban Governance Research Network (UGoveRN) and the research project “What is Governed in Cities: Residential Investment Landscapes and the Governance and Regulation of Housing Production” (WHIG).
