The symposium focused on environment as an important dimension to major international events, infrastructure development and city planning. Technically, an event is considered green if it is designed, organised and staged in accordance with sustainability principles, with a special focus on environmental concerns.
Leading experts from the UK and India shared their experiences with the Indian professionals including city managers, architects, engineers, planners, students. The symposium addressed issues concerning greening of major sports events such as Olympic and Commonwealth games with specific sessions in areas of sustainable architecture, low carbon energy efficient buildings, sustainable transport, and resource efficiency in planning.
We hope that this Symposium provided an opportunities for developing knowledge based networks for future, amongst professionals in both the countries.
