GreenCities Institute initiatives

A Global initiative to assemble, analyse, code, train and share a web based Knowledgebase to support Sustainable Habitat.

This initiative started at GreenCities conference in USA 2009. The initiatve welcome input and support from all interested. The knowledgebase classification and developement that started now requires more extensive data and knowledgebase build-ups and share from academia, industry, government and intertested NGOs.

The unified resource point is expected to grow and expand to developing nations, where a rapid industrial growth is underway, without adequate awareness on sustiainable industry practices. You may join the Business Action for Sustainable Development (BASD) at the 2012 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development in Rio de Janeiro. The BASD attempts to improve awareness and understanding on sustaiability leadership from the industries across nations.

We can collectively have that balanced growth and resource benefits, if we help, while help is required... that is now.

Engage in building a Future

Wider engagement in planning and development often helps to meet the last or first mile issues.

The engagements helps to start a development scenario or  conclude by usage/mis-use.

Providing a tangible framework for physical development requires extensinsive urban/regional planning knowledge/experience. All developments need professional groups with creativity, vision, experience and willingness to 'create', 'operate' and 'manage' the development.

The efforts to create the public good also require all essential management framework to sustain its operation and viability.

Are we creating the 'places' efficiently - with all positive engagements facilitated ? [Benchmark]
Are these places really provide us better habitats to work, play, educate and live ? [Quality of life]

Do they get developed effectively ? [development efficiency index]
Are they managed efficiently ? [management efficiency]

HST and Future Enterprise Systems

The 'mobility technologies' are changing... for the wheels and gadgets we used to have now and in the past.

Then, do we have systems, processes, enterprises which are ready for a fast paced world, and run with it... At the high-speed of information and fast transportation expected in the future (while Einsteen's light speed failed hold our belief on physics (of speed)!), what kind of process and systems would hold its place in our lives?

We are going to have more 'physics' problems to solve as "High-speed Management Systems" for our habitat.

The fundamentals of Management methods for many enterprises are yet to catch-up with the future mobility tech changes and challenges.
