Dubai Holding will host a series of talks and presentations from 3 to 12 December 2023, at Expo City Dubai, as part of its participation at the COP28

Four daily informative talks and presentations, hosted at Dubai Holding’s showcase space, will offer attendees a comprehensive overview of Dubai Holding’s sustainability initiatives, including design and construction, waste management, community development and hospitality. Aiming to foster awareness and drive engagement on climate action, the programme will also include a number of talks with expert speakers from local and international companies.

Open to all event attendees, the sessions will take place in the Energy Transition Hub, and are categorised into four key themes:  

Dubai Holding’s Sustainability Journey: Dubai Holding sector experts can hear about employee-driven climate action, the technology behind waste-to-energy processes, and the essentials of sustainable design.

Family-Friendly Sessions: Interactive discussions and educational experiences for families on climate change. Children can learn about the importance of biodiversity with The Green Planet Dubai and the critical role played by turtles in our marine ecosystems with the team from Jumeirah Group’s Dubai Turtle Rehabilitation Project.

Knowledge Sessions: These sessions provide expert insights on climate solutions from leading industry practitioners, including the strategies to reduce carbon footprints, the practices required for sustainable procurement and an exploration of the term 'ecological urbanism’ as cities continue to grow at pace.

SusTECHability: These sessions look at how generative AI technology is revolutionising recycling, and how AI-powered drones can help transform water management.
