Built Environments for a Cooler Planet: Sustainable Urbanization Pathways for the World of 2075

The built environment is a major contributor to global emissions, accounting for significant portions of those from construction, heating, and resource use. Rapid urbanization exacerbates this challenge across the planet, and particularly in fast-developing emerging economies undergoing transformative growth.

The seminar aims to provide a platform for inspiration, networking and mutual learning to reverse and modify this development.

Speakers include representatives from the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), a globally leading independent research institute that conducts policy-oriented research on global challenges.
