Sustainability is fast becoming a core requirement in the solutions demanded clients in all sectors. But understanding what that means in real terms can be challenging.

This session will outline the importance of delivering sustainable solutions and clearly demonstrate how sustainability and climate response are integral to every role. Specifically, this will focus on how the key functions of project management can be viewed through a sustainability lens to enable positive outcomes and benefits in sustainability.

Starting with an overview of what climate change means in practicality and the impacts caused by rising temperatures and extreme weather, the session will then highlight key challenges that need to be addressed:

• Sustainable Infrastructure
• Decarbonisation
• Energy Transition
• Climate Risk
• Nature Positive
• Social Value

Next is a look at what that means to Project Managers and the project profession, focusing on key areas of responsibility: Scope, Schedule, Finance, Quality, Risk, Resources, Materials and the all-important Culture. Each area has specific elements of sustainability that can be applied and these will be discussed to offer practical ways that Project Managers can become key stakeholders for the delivery of sustainability and their associated requirements.
