Echo the UN's Blueprint for Sustainable Development to Create an Ideal Green and Smart City

As sustainability development has become a global concern, the United Nations Summit on Sustainable Development adopted "The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", which includes the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) to establish a global blueprint for fostering peace, prosperity, and sustainable development. To achieve the goals of sustainable development, all sectors of society must take action to accelerate the development of cities through green and innovative solutions across various strategies.

Hence, the theme for this edition is "My Ideal Green and Smart City", encouraging participants to unleash their creativity and imagination.
