Between 2022 and 2050, population growth and human development investment will necessitate billions of square meters of new construction and infrastructure in the Global South. All this development will be undertaken simultaneously with increasing climate change impacts and the need for adaptive buildings and infrastructure. HOW do we build out all the development that is projected to take place, and do it sustainably, equitably, and with zero carbon emissions? Presenters will set out necessary design and construction guidelines, with regional examples, for equitable and resilient development to meet 50% x 2030 emissions reduction targets.
