“Shaping The Future” is a new show aimed at empowering cities and businesses towards sustainable & zero carbon design, covering various topics around sustainable cities. Season 1 will take viewers behind the scenes at URB headquarters in Dubai Design District, to see what it takes to design cities that will shape the future. Topics include Smart Cities, Liveable Cities, Resilient Cities, Biophilic Cities, Green Infrastructure, Productive Cities, Empowering Cities, Inclusive Cities and more.

The show looks to enable an edutainment knowledge platform, for cities and businesses to think holistically about the various challenges that directly impact quality of life, whilst promoting multi-functional solutions to reduce their impact on the environment. Rapid increase in urbanization, climate change and population are creating severe pressure on cities’ infrastructures as well as people’s quality of life. This requires a more resilient approach to creating the next generation of sustainable cities that address food security, water conservation, waste recycling, renewable energy, building materials, mobility, biodiversity, air pollution, wellbeing and much more.
