The interplay between city planning and city lighting
Welcome to a webinar on how sustainable urban planning with light as a key element can contribute to healthier and more liveable cities.
Lighting is an important part of urban infrastructure. Modern lighting can help create liveable cities and should be included in urban planning, as well as help drive the development of new digital solutions.
The webinar provides concrete examples from cities and urban spaces. The speakers will shed light on the interplay between planning the city and city lighting, and the role of lighting in creating attractive and safe urban spaces, smart and sustainable cities.
The language of the webinar will be Danish, Swedish and English.
