Modernscapes MENA Summit 2023: Paving the Way for Smart, Sustainable, and Vibrant Urban Futures

The Modernscapes MENA Summit 2023 is set to take place in early October under the theme “Smart and Sustainable Urbanism Driving Healthy and Green Cities of the Future.” This summit is a response to the rapid urbanization sweeping the globe, with over 70% of the world’s population projected to reside in cities by 2050. The urgency lies in the need to transform our urban environments intelligently to preserve both the urban landscape and the quality of life for city dwellers.

The future of urban landscaping will focus on creating green, healthy, sustainable, and well-designed communal spaces that foster human interaction in an age dominated by the internet and smartphones. The summit is in harmony with Dubai’s 2040 Urban Master Plan, drawing inspiration from the vision of HRH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who holds the positions of Dubai’s Ruler and the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE. The objective is to transform Dubai into the globe’s premier city for residents.

The event will bring together 200 landscape architects, consultants, municipality officials, and experts to share knowledge and strategies for enhancing the happiness and overall quality of life for residents, citizens, and visitors of Dubai. It promises to be a significant step towards shaping more sustainable and enjoyable urban environments in the MENA region.
