How do we design cities that actually deliver on net zero – not just in ambition, but in practice?

Join us for the RACE for 2030 Pathways to Net Zero Precincts Urban Design Forum, where researchers, industry practitioners and emerging scholars come together to explore how urban design can enable the transition to a low-carbon built environment.

Through industry perspectives, case study research, panel discussion and audience Q&A, we’ll dig into the connections between sustainability ambition, project feasibility, and precinct-to-corridor planning.
