Theme 1
Actions to Ensure No One Is Left Behind
The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed the way people behave and their sense of values. There is a growing emphasis on creating inclusive societies where everyone can live a fulfilling life, rather than just focusing on the economic-centric rationality of the past.
In this parallel session, we will discuss a wide range of urban efforts to improve all people’s quality of life by bringing the benefits of various innovations, including digitalization.
Theme 2
Actions to Achieve a Carbon Neutral Society
It is vital for cities as well as national governments to play major roles in taking environmental measures, and it is important to create a green recovery movement involving businesses, citizens, and others.
In this parallel session, we will discuss various urban initiatives tailored to local industrial and social characteristics to achieve a carbon neutral society.
