Securing Sustainable Futures: Adopting the SDGs in Construction, Business and Beyond

To achieve sustainability on a national, regional and global scale, all global stakeholders need to work towards furthering the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This collective vision aligns with Consistent Engineering’s philosophy, giving rise to conscious conversations regarding sustainable building and renewable energy in developed regions such as the Gulf countries and developing ones such as India.

The concept of the overarching online conference is to discuss and bring to the forefront the hurdles in achieving the sustainable development goals. It aims to bring together experts from the construction, architecture, and MEP industry to discuss these hurdles, analyse the gap at different levels, and contribute to sustainable development.

Considering this, we have put together a digital conference with curated conversations on Sustainable Energy Practices and Building Design. 

The event - "Securing Sustainable Futures- Adopting the SDGs in Construction, Business and Beyond" is spread across three days during the next month, the schedule for which is as below.
