Net Zero is Next

For the first time in history, more than half of the global population now resides in cities. The evolution of cities therefore has a huge impact on our future and can be viewed as a leverage point for developing a sustainable future.

In recognition of this, Sitra, the Finnish Innovation Fund, in collaboration with the City of Helsinki, has launched a sustainable development design competition.

The Low2No Design Competition consists of three parts. 1 Design a Strategy 2. Design an Indicator 3. Design a Vision. Seems simple enough, right? Not exactly...click here for brief presentations by selected entries to see just how involved and complicated it is. What an incredible opportunity to shape the way we develop cities in the future!
