Udal Network Image

UDAL is a network of professional and campaigning organisations that was formed in 1997 to promote the value of good urban design. UDAL’s organisations bring together over half a million people who design, plan, manage and campaign for better places. Their day-to-day decisions shape the urban environment. UDAL is working to help them become more effective.
