Webinar 1: climate(n)urban / Innovative Digital Approaches for Sustainable Urban Futures

The activity,  climate(n)urban  is the First Webinar, addressing four different climate-related challenges that aim to provide a basis for knowledge creation and common understanding among participants.  The activities, under the project Innovative Digital Approaches for Sustainable Urban Futures cover BIM, Digital Twin and AI technologies to address the complex challenges that cities face today regarding sustainability, climate change and public health, in order to build resilient urban futures. These challenges highlight various risks and hazards, such as water scarcity/floods, earthquakes, pandemics, and environmental pollution. While AI-driven methods and tools, BIM models and Digital Twins have been used independently in urban planning, architecture and engineering, their integration within collaborative and challenge-based settings needs more attention to provide more comprehensive and innovative ways to handle urban challenges.  The activities encompass raising students' and researchers' awareness and literacy about the scope and implications of innovative digital approaches considering those challenges for Sustainable Development Goals 2030.
