Between 2013 and 2018, the Institute of Urban Design and Landscape Architecture of TU Wien partnered with the Housing and Urban Development Division (HUD) of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) to create a scientific foundation for innovative methods that foster participatory urban planning and design.

The Urban Design Lab (UDL) worked in over twenty emerging cities in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).
