Tools for change.
This suite of free tools, research, and resources is our legacy to the urban change system, built around Studio THI’s three enduring commitments.
-
Helping communities understand why change is needed and how it can improve lives and places, building trust and creating a foundation for meaningful participation.
-
Strengthening the capability of those guiding communities and systems through transition, and keeping long-term public benefit at the centre of change.
-
Ensuring the benefits of urban change endure by sharing learning and resources widely so communities and practitioners can keep shaping better outcomes.
These resources are free to access and use. We hope they continue to inspire, inform, and equip you to help your communities, organisations, and stakeholders navigate urban change with confidence and impact.
