To try and answer this question, the Transnational Institute in 2017 launched Transformative Cities, asking communities to share their stories of radical transformation, in particular in the areas of water, energy and housing.

TNI also asks you to VOTE for your favorite of many examples, for an award to be announced June 06! More to come.
