Background information


The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) provide a global plan and a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. They are path-breaking and comprehensive in their approach to sustainability incorporating inclusion, equitability, and security into the folds of urban development.


CPTED as a theory, strategy, and methodology shares many of the virtues propounded by the UNSDGs. While this underscores the relevance of CPTED as a contemporary approach, it also highlights their overlaps and symbiotic relationship.


The International CPTED Association brings you a discussion on this very vital aspect of urban development and sustainability today, in a specially curated panel discussion with global leaders who have conceptualized the UNSDGs and are involved in their promotion and advocacy worldwide. We hope to investigate the subject from different perspectives and define the relationship between the SDGs and CPTED, with the live interaction between the esteemed panel and the global audience.


Being a global event, with relevance to all regions, we understand that the time slot may not be convenient for all. Hence, we strongly recommend that you register to be able to receive the recording and also share any specific queries you have. Even if you are not connected to ask the question, we will try to include your question in the broadcast for the benefit of all.


Topics 


Topics to be discussed include the following:

  • The role of CPTED in the achievement of the UNSDGs.
  • The parallels in the CPTED and UNSDG approaches.
  • How CPTED principles align with the UNSDGs.
  • Relevance of the three generations of CPTED with the UNSDGs
  • Commentary on the convergent and divergent factors.
  • Relevance of CPTED theories in achieving the UNSDGs in different aspects and applications.
