Cities of the Future 2022
2022 Conference Theme
Sustainable City Development
For 2022, Cities of the Future dived into the theme of Sustainable City Development - inspired by the 2030 Green Plan which focuses on: City in Nature, Energy Reset, Green Economy, Resilient Future and Sustainable Living.
In the ASEAN region alone, there are over 20 cities with 1.5 million citizens. The numbers inhabiting these cities grows everyday, forcing major shifts in the structuring of urban life. The Cities of the Future Agenda presented the leading minds in today’s modern city development, convening to tackle the major issues, as we took a closer look at issues such as 'Designing City Spaces for the Next Decade'.
