Addressing global climate change, advancing energy transition and green development, promoting the sustainable use of natural resources, and achieving harmonious coexistence between humans and nature have become an international consensus. The high-quality development of green and low-carbon cities is an inevitable requirement to meet people’s needs for a better life. The 2026 International Congress on Natural Resources and Planning will be held at The University of Hong Kong in March 2026. Concurrent with the congress will be a series of academic activities celebrating the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the Faculty of Architecture and the 45th anniversary of the Department of Urban Planning and Design at HKU.
