The Urban Affairs Association (UAA) is an international professional organization for urban scholars, researchers, policy analysts, and activists.
UAA began in 1969 and has a long history of "welcoming and nurturing scholarship that asks tough questions and grapples with the most pressing issues confronting urban communities."[1] It sponsors two peer-reviewed journals, the Journal of Urban Affairs and the Journal of Race, Ethnicity and the City, which publish manuscripts related to urban research and policy analysis. UAA also sponsors Upsilon Sigma (the Urban Studies Honor Society) as well as an annual conference that attracts over 1000 international researchers and doctoral students. UAA is comprised of 700+ members from colleges, universities and non-profit institutions in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.[2]
