The future will be better than you think – and the reason is that there is a breakthrough movement to regenerate nature, society and the economy, and it’s gathering momentum.

This year’s theme was ‘Driving Urban Change’, and, just like last year’s edition ‘New World: New Era, Time to Reconnect’, social sustainability remained a pressing topic.
