Diplomatic Corps visits the UN-Campus Bonn 🏬 Almost 30 years ago, the German government laid the foundation to establish the UN-Campus in Bonn. Today, Bonn counts 26 UN agencies and over 1000 international employees. They work on pressing global issues such as climate change, land degradation, biodiversity, wildlife conservation, sustainable industrial development, health, human security, disaster risk reduction, education and training. At this Monday’s UN Open House, diplomats accredited in Germany had the chance to learn about the work of the various agencies and offices. Andreas Schäfer presented the unique mandate of UNIDO ITPO Germany, which focusses on the promotion of the private sector in the Global South through technology transfer and investments, especially in sub-Saharan Africa.

🏬Affordable and sustainable construction: solutions for urbanization in emerging markets❗️ Currently about 4.4 billion people are living in cities. This number is expected to increase to 6.4 billion by 2050 while 96% of that growth will take place in developing and emerging economies. This rapid urbanization requires targeted solutions for the sector to conduct sustainable and affordable construction projects. About 5% of global CO2 emissions are caused by cement production. However, there are already environmentally friendly and economically viable solutions in place in order to make a change. Innovative companies are revolutionizing the way we build, using upcycled materials, rethinking the production process and implementing circularity concepts. At this year’s Future Cleantech Festival, UNIDO ITPO Germany organized a panel discussion on sustainable and affordable construction featured by innovative companies offering solutions for the sector. Stefan Wittek (B.T. innovation GmbH), Isabel Faller (Polycare), Adital Ela (Criaterra Innovations),Michael Tekabe (Kubik, Inc.), discussed how new construction methods can not only lower greenhouse emissions but also help developing countries to create new jobs and new value chains while also creating modern housing in their growing cities. The panel was moderated by ITPO Germany deputy head Vanessa Völkel and Expert Andreas Schäfer. One of the key takeaways of the discussion is that norms and regulations that focus on material input rather than outcome are often holding back innovative solutions. Regulations should be in line with the latest developments in the sector.
