What is the situation in your country regarding urbanisation and megacities? What opportunities and risks come with megacities? Do you perhaps live in one of the major cities with a population of over 10 million? Or do you instead live in the countryside? What are your opinions and your experiences? The discussion and questions on the subject are as diverse and multifaceted as the megacities themselves. In our Community you can join the discussion forum of the "Megastädte - Megacities" group on all aspects of megacities. You can upload your own photographs and participate in blogs. Here are some of the questions that you can discuss with others:

What can be done to prevent slum development? Are there slums in your city? If so, what are the living conditions there?

What environmental problems affect the megacities you know? How can they be kept in check?

What is your experience with interpersonal contact in major cities? Is it easy to meet people?

How can megacities be protected from epidemics, attacks, and crime? Is it even possible to protect them?

What megacities have you visited and what was your impression of their architecture?
 
Are urbanisation and centralisation taking place where you come from, that is, is the rural population migrating to a few major cities? What does that mean for the cities and for the more rural regions?

Do you perhaps live in a rural area and can tell about the advantages of not living in a megacity?
