Cities are at the centre of the climate conversation. From transportation and waste to water, food systems, buildings, and energy usage – urban environments are where the biggest sustainability challenges and opportunities exist.
Reaching Net Zero will not happen by accident. It will need innovation, planning, community behaviour change, and design thinking – all working together.
This workshop brings you into that space.
What this workshop is about
Participants will explore how cities can move toward circularity, cleaner energy, greener infrastructure, and smarter resource management – without compromising livability or economic growth.
You will learn how to turn sustainability theories into practical and measurable strategies.
The goal: design a Net Zero city that works in the real world.
What we’ll explore
- How climate goals translate into real urban decisions
- Global sustainability frameworks you must understand
- Waste, energy and materials: designing circular systems
- What makes a city truly “Net Zero” – beyond just carbon offsets
- How citizens, policy, and technology work together for change
