Innovative Solutions for Sustainable Smart Cities

This year’s conference will focus on change processes and sustainable adaption concepts for urban spaces worldwide on their way to become “water smart”. How can water management become part of urban change processes and what opportunities are offered for achieving the UN sustainability goals of Agenda 2030 (in particular SDG 6 and SDG 11)?

Proven experts from business, research, politics and non-governmental organisations will present their concepts in the morning and discuss these concepts and other approaches with the audience in the afternoon during a “Worldcafé”. The developed suggestions and results will form the thematical basis for the next BLUE PLANET conference in April 2019.
