Civilizations are built and sustained by the quality of their infrastructure. Next year, the world marks a major turning point: one out of every two people on the planet will live in cities. Like never before, the critical role of infrastructure provision, maintenance, and financing rests at the heart of sustainable cities. Infrastructure is the skeleton around which the city is built, and dictates how we move and interact with each other. It also can help or detract from the building of community. Join us at this thought-provoking program on infrastructure from a regional, national, and international perspective.
