It's the international benchmark that no Australian city meets. But should we be aspiring to it?
Imagine if you could work, get an education and access medical care, shops, sports and entertainment all within a 15 minute stroll or bike ride from your front door.

This vision of a 15-minute city developed by French professor Carlos Moreno has captured the public imagination in recent years, since being popularised by Parisian mayor Anne Hidalgo during her 2020 re-election campaign.
