Regional and Urban Policy (RUP) concentrates on the assessments of urban and regional policies, as well as studies on sustainable urban infrastructures and innovative governance in Indonesia. Several research topics within the cluster are Innovative Urban Governance, Sustainable Transportation and Smart City. The RUP cluster has been managing a large scale long term effort called “Citypedia’ which aims to collect and depict recent phenomena and development in urban areas.
Our cluster has published key articles published as city profiles of several cities in Indonesia: Medan, Bandung, Palembang, Balikpapan and Semarang. We scrutinize issues, such as post oil cities, decentralization, nature based solutions, green infrastructure, growing economy and smart city. Our existing collaboration is the partnership between Stavanger University, Bandung Institute of Technology and Pokhara University. This cluster is chaired by Dr. Ari Tarigan. Also RUP have a new RDI’s research on urban studies (Citypedia) For further information or inquiry regarding research cluster, please contact Danang Azhari.
