Making cities work sustainably will become increasingly important in our fast-urbanising world, and ‘alpha’ cities - such as London and Hong Kong, that disproportionately exert influence on global affairs - have a critical role to play.
The Natural History Museum is guided by a vision for a future where both people and planet thrive. This panel session brings leading commentators from across the world to ignite curiosity and foster informed debate on the topic of cities and sustainability.
Speakers include:
- Jenna Ho Marris, Cofounder, Tai Tam Tuk Foundation
- Fai Hui, Horticulturist, Go Green, Hong Kong
- Cecil Konijnendijk, Professor of Urban Forestry, University of British Columbia
- Ir Lee Chi Ming, former Council Member of ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers) UK, former Chairman of the ICE Hong Kong Association, Board Chairman of CarbonCare InnoLab, Hong Kong
- Lead and Moderator: Clare Matterson CBE, Director of Engagement, Natural History Museum, London, UK
