Welcome to CSCR

Welcome to the website for CSCR - the Centre for the Study of Cities and Regions.

In August 2009 a new research cluster—Urban Worlds— was established in the Department of Geography. CSCR's academic research and scholarship on cities has now been integrated into the new research cluster. A website for Urban Worlds will be available very soon. In the meantime, please contact the cluster convenor, Dr Colin McFarlane (colin.mcfarlane@durham.ac.uk) for information about cluster activities and our continuing programme of urban research.

This website will be maintained as a record of the activities of CSCR (and its predecessor ICRRDS) and will provide continuing access to reports and publications produced by CSCR and ICRRDS.

CSCR will continue to provide contract research and consultancy services to public and private sector clients. Please contact Professor Joe Painter (j.m.painter@durham.ac.uk) for more information.
