The built environment profession is at a crossroads. We are serving more sophisticated clients who have increasingly higher expectations, while working in an environment with increasing competition.
The aim of this webinar is to position our profession as one that is firstly aware and engaged with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the New Urban Agenda, as well as other recent developments within the environmental sphere including within the finance industry, international environmental law and associated global agreements.
Join Benjamin Towell as he takes us through the RICS Value the Planet campaign which helps frame the built environment profession’s direct response to the deep socio-ecological crisis of the Anthropocene age.
Benjamin is a multidisciplinary, award winning advocate, policy maker, Architect, Chartered Surveyor and Chartered Environmentalist. He holds the RICS Governing Council Urbanisation and Planning Strategy Seat. He has been involved in developing and implementing Singapore’s environmental policy over the last decade including leading the drive towards zero energy buildings.
