Abstract
Recently, much of the literature on sharing in cities has focused on the sharing economy,in which people use online platforms to share underutilized assets in the marketplace. This view of sharing is too narrow for cities, as it neglects the myriad of ways, reasons, and scales in which citizens share in urban environments. Research presented here by the Liveable Cities team in the form of participant workshops in Lancaster and Birmingham, UK, suggests that a broader approach to understanding sharing in cities is essential. The research also highlighted tools and methods that maybe used to help to identify sharing in communities. The paper ends with advice to city stakeholders,such as policymakers, urban planners, and urban designers, who are considering how to enhance sustainability in cities through sharing.
