Workshop Objectives
Currently 54% of the world’s total population lives in urban areas and will continue to increase to 68% by 2050. This global phenomenon will also happen in Indonesia. Based on a survey conducted by Bappenas and UNFPA, the population of Java island that have lived on urban areas since 2015 is 65.4%, and is predicted to increase fantastically to 94.5% by 2030. What a remarkable phenomenon, imagine what kind of urban lifestyle model is capable and appropriate to accommodate the life of the people at that time.
Is there any sustainable urban paradigm that can be more sensible to sustain the civilization and life of Indonesian society in the future?
What are the changes that need to be made, both in the aspect of the mindset, the principles of urban planning and infrastructure, and how the organization manage and empower it from the financial or institutional perspectives?
These critical and fundamental questions above are what make us organize the “Leadership Course on Net Zero Urbanism”. It is our hope that you, whether you’re a young or senior executives dealing with green infrastructure and urban development, will gain deeper understanding and enlightenment of the future of the city, its challenges and implications for leadership in planning and management or asset development and infrastructure.

Featured Workshop
Embrace New Urbanism Paradigm for CEO and Senior Staff of PT Pulomas Jaya and PT Jakarta Konsultindo.
The first leadership course in new urbanism was held in Singapore, March 2018. The major objective of this leadership course is to change the attendees’ mindset and old paradigm to embrace the new urbanism paradigm. The participants also sought to increase their concern and willingness to change–as a result of better understanding about ‘new urbanism’ compared to the poor urbanism of most cities in Indonesia. We promote an anti sprawling development approach while exploring and witnessing the success of Singapore as one of the most livable cities in the world. Participants visited important urbanism spots in Singapore, the major transit oriented development areas, and institutions or authority in Singapore. We also tried to unfold the strategic reason and rationale dynamics behind the success story of Singapore. The important goals of this ‘Leadership Course in New Urbanism’ were to present the issues of new urbanism and laying the groundwork for the next leader.
