The Arab Academy for Science, Technology and Maritime Transport (AASTMT) is at the forefront of innovative urban planning, utilizing interactive games to tackle climate change and create sustainable cities. Facilitated by Associate Professor Nancy Abdel-Moneim, AASTMT participated in the World Urban Forum 12 (WUF12), showcasing its commitment to cutting-edge solutions.
The "Debatable Urbs!" game, developed by AASTMT faculty and students, engages participants in discussions on climate-resilient and livable cities, fostering critical thinking and collaborative problem-solving. This game-based approach empowers participants to make informed decisions, prioritize climate actions, and apply placemaking principles to create resilient, sustainable, and people-centred urban environments.
