MDPI Webinar | World Habitat Day 2024 Webinar, 7 October 2024
MDPI would like to invite all experts recognized in their fields to attend the World Habitat Day 2024 Webinar, which will be held on 7 October 2024.
In order to commemorate World Habitat Day 2024, MDPI is launching a special webinar to encourage researchers to come together, highlight how the exchange of findings facilitates efforts toward sustainable urbanization, housing, and environmental issues, and take action on these issues.
Urban research plays a crucial role in improving the quality of life in cities and communities, addressing global challenges related to housing, reducing inequalities, and developing interventions that lead to inclusive, safe, and resilient living environments.
