Event Details:
2030 is the target year to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, an action plan for people, planet and prosperity. Without immediate actions to combat the climate crisis, we may have to face extreme weather, floods, droughts and sea-level rise by 2030, with dire consequences. Please join the webinar to explore what the government of Hong Kong, the private sector and the civil society can do to foster climate resilience in the city’s developments.
