About CLC
The Centre for Liveable Cities (CLC) was set up in 2008 based on a strategic blueprint developed
by Singapore’s Inter-Ministerial Committee on Sustainable Development. The Centre’s mission is to
distil, create and share knowledge on liveable and sustainable cities. CLC distils key learning points
from Singapore’s experiences over the last half-century, while creating knowledge to address
emerging challenges. It also shares knowledge with, and learns from, other cities and experts.
CLC receives guidance from its Advisory Board, comprising senior fi gures from academia, industry
and the public sector. A high-level panel of Distinguished Advisors - comprising prominent former
politicians and senior civil servants - contributes to the intellectual development of the Centre. CLC
works closely with its Stakeholder Agencies - representing Singapore’s urban planning, governance
and development expertise – to integrate their knowledge. CLC Panel of Experts are domain
experts with technical knowledge and expertise that CLC will tap for capability development and
future consultancy projects.
The Centre operates as part of the Ministry of National Development, and comprises a dynamic
CLC team of offi cers from diverse disciplines and backgrounds. Guided by the CLC Framework for
Liveable and sustainable Cities, the Centre works across three main areas - Research, Capability
Development, and Promotion.
