Sustainable development of Azerbaijan: Green building and Smart Complex 2020
This special international Congress will evaluate the challenges faced when creating smarter cities and moving towards improved and sustainable public services for citizens. The Congress will explore the need for flexible partnerships between public and private sectors as well as diverse industries such as telecommunication, energy providers, manufacturers, and suppliers to ensure improvements in mobility, energy consumption, governance and social cohesion.
We lead global thinking on the successful integration of nature into the built environment. Through our Green City initiative, will be promoted the essential role of plants in creating vibrant urban areas in which people and businesses can thrive. Our environment, human wellbeing, social cohesion and economies are all improved by intelligently designed green space.
We aim to develop an international standard for green cities as well as being a focal point for green city best practice and a source of expertise. Through world activities, research and marketing, and shared resources we seek to inspire people, organisations, city councils and government administrations to join this challenging movement and reap the benefits.
