To celebrate the launch of the 6th edition of the #ArcadisSustainableCitiesIndex last month, we held a launch event at Amsterdam's Johan Cruijff ArenA. Where better to reveal the results of our most comprehensive examination of urban sustainability to date! Take a look at this video recap of the event. https://okt.to/EQHPpK #ArcadisSCI24 #ArcadisSustainableCitiesIndex #SustainableCities

High Level Leadership Performance Coach and Co-Founder of Future Cities Forum and Director of The Broadcast PR Business
There have been widescale reports in the news of the damaging effect of cruise ships to Venice and its lagoon and more recently to Amsterdam, along with questions to be answered on solving the problem of over-tourism in both cities. There is also dialogue on how port cities can expand sensitively, how they are re-designed to make use of available land and what uses these new port districts will have in the future. The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's Port-Cities Programme aims to identify how ports can be assets for urban development. It states that the link between port and city growth has become weaker in recent times and is comparing policies to answer the question on how ports can regain their role as drivers of urban economic growth and how can negative port impacts be mitigated. Venice has worked to mitigate the harmful effects of cruise ships mooring close to the city centre in the old port, moving them further out to the industrial port of Marghera, but 'wash' from these large vessels is still harming the natural structure and habitat of the lagoon. Future Cities Forum in Venice last week looked at the development of new districts both in cities and at sea ports. Leading insurance and real estate company Generali hosted the forum at the Procuratie Vecchie, San Marco along with The Human Safety Net, and the discussions ranged from mixed-use developments in Milan to the emerging innovation district plans for the old port of Venice. The opening panel at 'Sustainable Cities' at the Procuratie Vecchie involved Generali Real Estate's Paolo Micucci, Heather Fearfield of FUTURE CITIES FORUM, Professor Jacopo Galli of Universita luav di Venezia / Venice Sustainability Forum and Keb Garavito Bruhn of Pilbrow & Partners #port cities #new districts #urban regeneration You can read the full panel report here https://lnkd.in/ewSuRhaA

Today, State of Green Denmark launched its recently published white paper "Urban green transition" at a virtual morning session. Burcu Tiryaki presented Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality's inspiring green transformation project, "Green Valley", which aims to transform riverside areas around Istanbul into sustainable and accessible recreational urban spaces and areas capable of resisting climate change. Birgitte Krohn with C40 Cities shared insights on the challenges of transforming our cities and urban areas into green and thriving urban spaces. And Søren Hansen with Urban Advisory gave a presentation on urban development 'the Danish way'. I was delighted to take part in the debate afterwards, facilitated by Ulrik Raabjerg Søndergaard, where I got to offer my perspective: the importance of focusing on the triple bottom line, that includes social, environmental and economic sustainability. Urban development entails a fierce fight for areas in big cities, and development initiatives should benefit and promote biodiversity, great urban spaces and buildings. Not least considering that we must ensure that every Euro spent serves several purposes. Feel free to read the whitepaper as well: https://lnkd.in/enx-4yhP #sustainablecities

San Francisco’s Chief Climate and Sustainability Executive | Director of SF Environment | Implementing SF’s Climate Action Plan
Charting a Sustainable Course: Midweek Reflections 🌊🚢 As I posed for my photo at the helm of the Stad Amsterdam, the very act felt symbolic of the greater journey we're embarking on in San Francisco. I was reminded of our city's path towards a sustainable future—a future where innovation help protect and cleanses our waterways and circular economies thrive ♻️. In recent days, I've had the honor of representing San Francisco in different discussions aboard this magnificent vessel. I spoke on the expansion of new policies, technologies and innovation to rejuvenate and protect our precious waterways and engaged with the Dutch government and local business partners to learn and share how we jointly advance best practices for a circular economy in our built environment 🤝🌐. These conversations are more than exchanges of ideas; they are initiating necessary ripples of worldwide action. They signify our city's unwavering commitment to environmental leadership and the collaboration that will be needed to execute on a global scale 🌍. As we navigate towards these ambitious and important goals, I feel so fortunate to be part of a growing coalition steering us towards a greener tomorrow 🍃. I remain optimistic for the future and plan to update you on as we set sail together on this vital voyage. 🌱⚓️ #SustainableFuture #CircularEconomy #CleanWaterways #EcoInnovation #sanfrancisco #Climateaction Netherlands Jan

Amsterdam leads the way as the most sustainable city in the world, according to our latest research across 100 global cities. Find out the major gaps between cities, as they strive to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. “Cities play a critical role in advancing the sustainable development agenda. However, our progress assessment shows that a lot more needs to be done to meet the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. With just 2,000 days to go, the challenge is to keep pushing the boundaries of innovation.” John Batten, Arcadis Global Cities Director.
