BUILDING PROGRESS
Our world is growing, with the global population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. Our future is increasingly urban, with 70 of people expected to live in cities by then. As 1.6 billion people lack adequate housing and sanitation, we need to build livable cities that work for all.
