Building Resilient Communities: Real Estate and the UN Sustainable Development Goals

While environmental issues and Proptech have been the buzz words around sustainable development, real estate is also a key driver of jobs that provide decent work and economic growth for a broad spectrum of the community (SDG 8). Real estate organizations support continuing education (SDG 4) and promote gender equity (SDG 5). Forward thinking design can reduce potable water consumption (SDG 6), introduce urban farming and reduce food waste (SDG 3), and continue the transition to clean energy (SDG 7). We all have the power and responsibility to shape the future of our communities. Urban October is the time to take stock, make plans and lead the way toward responsive living environments and a better quality of life for all.
