The goal of this Sustainable Urban Systems (SUS) workshop is to identify key sustainability issues associated with megapolitan growth and promising research areas that could be harnessed to promote a more equitable and healthy urban future. By convening a diversity of expertise across an array of disciplines, sectors, and locations, this conference aims to: (1) identify the key challenges megapolitan regions and their adjacent communities and natural spaces face as urbanization continues, (2) explore the myriad approaches used in megapolitan regions to address these challenges, and (3) synthesize this information to identify priority research areas that a research network could promote for improving urban systems sustainability. In pursuing the megapolitan-focused approach, input will be solicited from a diversity of experts through an interdisciplinary, synthesis-focused agenda. The target to converge and focus on the most critical megapolitan challenges and opportunities and outline a framework for building strong, collaborative relationships. It is anticipated that the active engagement and participation of academics and industry with local governments and non-profit groups who are tasked with implementing sustainability initiatives will lead to a number of new partnerships and outputs. The end products from this conference, shared widely across the PI and co-PIs networks, will take form as a (1) white paper to NSF, (2) peer-reviewed synthesis article journal article, (3) "Green Print" for work managers and practitioners to help them transition material from the conference into their daily work, and (4) scope of work for informing future education and outreach products.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

本次可持续城市系统（SUS）研讨会的目标是确定与大都市增长相关的关键可持续性问题，以及可以用来促进更公平和健康的城市未来的有前途的研究领域。通过召集跨学科，部门和地点的专业知识的多样性，本次会议旨在：（1）确定大都市地区及其邻近社区和自然空间在城市化持续发展过程中面临的主要挑战，（2）探索大都市地区应对这些挑战的各种方法，以及（3）综合这些信息，以确定研究网络可以促进改善城市系统可持续性的优先研究领域。在采取以大城市为重点的办法时，将通过一个以综合为重点的跨学科议程，征求各种专家的意见。目标是集中和关注最关键的大都市挑战和机遇，并概述建立强大合作关系的框架。预计学术界和工业界与负责执行可持续性倡议的地方政府和非营利团体的积极接触和参与将导致一些新的伙伴关系和产出。本次会议的最终产品，在PI和co-PI网络中广泛共享，将采取以下形式：（1）NSF的白色论文，（2）同行评审的综合文章期刊文章，（3）工作经理和从业人员的“绿色打印”，以帮助他们将会议材料转换为日常工作，以及（4）为未来的教育和推广产品提供信息的工作范围。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
