More than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas, and this figure is likely to increase to over 70% by themid-century. This webinar has been designed to be an introductory discourse on the inter-linkage between cities and climate change, through a mix of presentations, interviews and video case studies. The webinar will cover issues in both climate change mitigation and adaptation, particularly focusing on the technological interventions (hardware, software and orgware) that cities can adopt as part of their efforts to combat. Through interactive Q&A sessions, participants will have the opportunity to put forward their questions and comments to the panel of experts.
