During this event series, speakers from across academia and practice focusing on East and Southeast Asia, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East present their unique disciplinary perspectives and propose transdisciplinary directions for future research.
On 27 April, Prof. Daniel Karthe and Ms Halim Lee contribute a presentation with the title “Fragmented Infrastructure Systems in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia: Assessment from a Resource Nexus and Public Health Perspective”.
How can infrastructure be chosen, planned, designed, implemented, maintained, enhanced and used to improve human well-being in formal and informal urban areas?
The sustained functioning of infrastructural systems has multiple positive effects on human health and wellbeing. Therefore, infrastructure is central to the UN Sustainable Development agenda, featuring in and contributing to most Sustainable Development Goals (Goals 1, 3, 5–14 among others).
The INFRA+ webinar series aims to identify links between context-specific infrastructural challenges, approaches to their solution and universal mechanisms towards improved sustainability.
