Sustainable Cities

Ensuring better quality of life in our cities, now and in the future

Overview

The concept of cities maturing sustainably is the foundation for ensuring better quality of lives now and in the future. This is the reason the 11th sustainable development goal is designed exclusively for nations to focus on fostering sustainable cities and communities.

This assumes even more significance in the light of the fact that, according to estimates, 6 out of 10 people would be city dwellers by 2030. Resilient infrastructure that can support the growing cities sustainably to accommodate this growing demand is critical.

Just And Inclusive Growth

Sustainable growth of cities is dictated by social justice and inclusion in the closely linked aspects of social, environmental, and economic growth.

Climate Change Adaptation

Adapting to climate change demands a prudent approach for an equitable transition and stronger communities to mitigate the effects of climate change.

Objectives

To this end we work under the umbrella of green finance practice, focusing on working with governments. Our collaboration with relevant stakeholders makes sure that infrastructure investments are made in the right place to ensure sustainable growth and a better quality of life in Indian cities.

We believe that investing in appropriate and resilient green infrastructure is a key and quintessential element to sustainable growth. It not just ensures better quality of life during this transitory period but also generates sufficient employment opportunities to ensure this growth and transition is inclusive.
