The Arab Urban Development Barometer consists of a series of surveys that are conducted every 6 months, the analysis of which is published as consolidated report. The aim of this barometer is to map urban trends and the subsequent evolution of Arab cities over time.

The Urban Living Lab is a platform that drives collaboration between municipalities, researchers and practitioners through an action-research approach to innovatively address urban development challenges. The Lab will conduct pilot projects in respective cities to build context-based knowledge and innovative solutions.

The urban development reports and briefs by AUDI are developed through three different but interlinked activities, each with its own format of publication. These include practice reports, dialogue roundtables, and policy briefs and campaigns.
