This topic explores how cities evolve under the influence of population shifts, technology, markets, policy, climate change, and extreme events. Using an Urban Dynamics Scenarios Modelling Framework, the talk examines how today’s decisions shape future urban outcomes and identifies pathways to create safe, just, and sustainable cities that thrive within planetary boundaries.

The environmental footprint of global meat consumption has led to extensive focus on a possible protein transition towards less meat-intensive diets. The idea that other forms of protein can more or less seamlessly replace meat has occupied an increasingly central position in these debates.

This talk examines Kampong Gelam’s transformation from historic neighbourhood to managed heritage-tourism district, tracing three key phases.

Why do people protect themselves from extreme heat, and why do intentions not always translate into action? This seminar examines urban heat adaptation through the COM-B framework, with particular attention to motivation: risk perceptions, concern, attitudes, intentions and self-efficacy.

This special industry-academia symposium will bring together leading architects, engineers, researchers, and industry experts to explore how AI, sustainability, and emerging technologies are transforming the built environment.

DCS is a joint academic-industrial forum bringing together researchers, practitioners, regulators, and industry leaders to explore system-level, secure-by-design approaches that address the unique challenges of protecting water systems, energy grids, transportation networks, and other critical infrastructure sectors.

Countries need to both mitigate climate change and adapt to it, but limited resources mean one may get prioritised over the other. This research asks why, and finds that mitigation is seen as more desirable (having a more attractive goal, with global benefits), while adaptation is seen as more feasible (being easier to act on, with localised benefits).

This lecture explores how environmental inequalities shape psychological experiences across the Global South, where communities often face the greatest climate risks despite contributing least to the crisis.

Join us at AI by Design for Humanity, a symposium that brings together leading architects, researchers, philosophers, and industry practitioners to explore the impact of AI on design, creativity, ethics, sustainability, and human values.
