建立与世界各地学府的交流平台

“城市”一直是讨论的热点话题,每个城市都有不同的气质,每个城市的背后也潜藏着不同的发展逻辑。将城市话题放置于在全球语境下展开讨论,必然会有更国际化的视野、更多元化的声音以及更丰富的思想碰撞。


作为一个具有全球化国际视野的交流平台,《城市中国》(Urban China)非常重视聆听世界各地学者的声音,因此希望通过UC海外观察员栏目与世界各地的高校或研究机构搭建起交流的桥梁。


‘Cities’has always been a heat topic of discussion in and out of academia. We believe in the uniqueness of each city and that each one has a distinct logic behind its urban development. Our goal is to discuss this topic in a global context, which we hope will bring a more international perspective, more diverse voices, and a richer exchange of ideas.


The Urban China International Observer Program was created to establish a global platform for communication with an international outlook.



独特的城市,最新的观察视角

八年来,分布在世界各地、深耕于各个领域的年轻学者报名参与UC海外观察员,并在城市更新、智慧城市、绿色城市、宜居城市、城市人居、建筑设计等多个话题发起了研究与探讨。这些学术理论与城市现实难题的讨论与碰撞,对于不同城市的思想与感悟,共同推动了城市发展的进程。


目前,海外观察员的队伍已经颇具规模。共有来自全球40个城市、世界44所知名高校、总计63名海外观察员,组织16场海外观察沙龙,组织3场由观察员作为主咖的专题沙龙、1届盛泽蚕花里社区设计节,投稿并发表了数十篇专栏文章。其中,有相当一部分成员已经回国就职,在新的工作岗位上继续参与城市观察员活动。


Eight years on, young scholars from around the world, engaged in various fields, have joined the observer programme, and initiated research on topics including urban transformation, smart city, green city, livable city, architecture and design, etc. The intersection of theories and real-world experiences from various cities has fostered insights that drive urban development.


At present, our team of overseas observes has grown considerably, with 63 overseas observers from 40 cities and 44 overseas universities. Together, they have successfully organized 16 workshops, 3 thematic salons with our observers as the main curators, the‘New Silk Stories’ Suzhou Shengze Canhuali Design Festival, and have published dozens of column articles. A significant number of our observers have returned to China and continue their engagement in Urban China’s observer activities at their new posts.

8年之变


8年中,世界和中国城市化进程已经发生很大变化,城市研究、城市专业也深度改变;同时,众多海外观察员回国工作后,依然与UC保持了密切的合作,基于以上原因,“海外观察员”一称已不再贴切,同时观察员的任务和期待也不再相同。如何将海外城市见闻与国内城市境况结合起来,将是本次观察员项目想要探索的新方向。

因此,我们首先剔除了原先的glocal insight、国内观察员、海外观察员等复杂的分类,正式将“城市中国海外观察员”计划更名为“城市中国观察员”计划。并将UC旗下的全部特约城市观察计划都囊括在“城市观察员”这一计划之下。同时赋予全部授权的成员以“城市中国特约观察员”头衔(以正式聘书为准)。

In the past eight years, trends of urbanization across China and global cities have been evolving, and urban research has adapted accordingly. In the meanwhile, many of our international observers have returned to China for work, maintaining close cooperation with Urban China. In this context, the previous programme name of ‘International Observers’ has become outdated. With the new observer program, we aim to explore how to blend overseas urban experiences with the domestic urban landscape in China.

To this end, we simplified the classification, removing categories of glocal insight, domestic observers, and international observers, and officially renamed the ‘Urban China International Observers’ Programme to ‘Urban China Observers’ Programme. All urban observation initiatives under Urban China now fall under this program, and all authorized participants will receive the title of ‘Urban China Special Observer’ (subject to the official certificate of appointment).


招募对象
正在海内外从事城市研究、设计、开发、管理相关课题,或对城市发展话题关注、热爱、敏感的学者、交流学生、在校工作人员、相关从业者等;
优先考虑在海外高校中攻读的硕、博士研究生,且自招聘日起,在校时间不少于1年为佳。社会工作人员需自我评判并认为未来1年之内有开展研究、观察的时间保证。


We aim to recruit international or local graduate students, exchange students, researchers, and practitioners specialized in and passionate at relevant fields of urban issues;
Graduate students at overseas universities are preferred, and his/her time at universities or research institutions should be no less than one year since the date of recruitment.
Full-time practitioners must ensure they can dedicate sufficient time to program activities over the coming year.

工作内容

城市中国观察员计划已经成为一个开放的专业研究网络,成员与UC、成员与成员之间逐渐形成了互动研究网络,因此,城市中国观察员的工作转变为如下方向:
