Project Abstract
Our cities are dynamic, living systems. With rapid urbanization occurring worldwide, this has brought major sustainability, liveability and health challenges. The potential for harnessing the ‘data revolution' and artificial intelligence in designing sustainable, healthy and equitable cities has not yet been realised. As such, 'Environmental Intelligence' will shape an emerging paradigm-shift towards this. We will develop compelling approaches to studying human-environment-health relationships. Through 'Sensing & Actuating', we will guide citizens’ behaviour and urban planning for improving well-being in response to the environment, thereby examining the role of technology in enabling sustainable, healthy and equitable cities of the future.
