UN75: Sustainable Engineering in Action
This beautifully presented hardback book explores the ICE and UN’s shared commitment to shaping a better future and addresses the diverse challenges that lie ahead. These challenges are informed by the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the UN agencies involved in implementing them, and the ways in which engineering can provide rigorous, long-term solutions. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global goals designed to be an actionable blueprint for creating a more sustainable future. These include goals such as reducing poverty and hunger, improving education, promoting gender equality, and protecting the environment. In order to achieve these goals, engineering can play a key role.
Featuring contributions from a host of UN agencies, as well as such prominent organisations as WaterAid and Oxford University, the book highlights engineering’s vital impact in such areas as health and sanitation, human rights, the climate, urban growth, economic development and agriculture.
