Urban Policy and Research is an international journal dedicated to the publication of refereed articles in English in the field of urban studies and urban policy in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia Pacific region. The scope of the journal is international in two senses: it presents to a worldwide readership a view of the urban policies of particular countries, and it encourages dialogue among researchers, policy makers and practitioners in the region.

Urban Policy and Research seeks to develop better links between theoretical and empirical research, and practice. It seeks to stimulate informed debate about urban issues by publishing material from a wide range of theoretical and research approaches.

While there is an emphasis on Australian and New Zealand urban policy, Urban Policy and Research welcomes articles of relevance to our core readership to encourage an outward looking perspective among scholars and practitioners.
