CAPABILITIES
Sustainable Cities & Infrastructure
The world’s & urban population is increasing exponentially. With a growing number of informal settlements, inadequate and overburdened infrastructure, and services (such as waste collection and water and sanitation systems, roads, and transport), worsening air pollution and unplanned urban spaces, there is a need to build cities that are inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
With an in-depth experience in this domain, we leverage on our people capabilities and technology to provide holistic solutions that navigate through complex urban challenges, improve quality of life and lead to smart growth. We advise governments in developing countries including South Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa to tackle urban sustainability challenges by developing and implementing strategies for a low-carbon, sustainable future. Our expertise is well paced with national & international best practices especially in the core areas of smart cities, climate resilient infrastructure, water management solutions, sustainable waste management, sanitation, green infrastructure interventions, innovative construction technologies, waste to energy, social and gender inclusion, safeguards and so on.
