Our cities are growing and expanding every day, but true progress means putting people first when designing our cities. People-centred smart city is about:

Walkable, safe, and inclusive streets

Affordable housing and accessible services

Green public spaces that connect communities

Technology that empowers its citizens

Sustainable transport that keeps everyone moving

From local communities to global networks, partnerships drive progress. When governments, NGOs, businesses, and citizens work together, change becomes stronger and more lasting. Collaboration is key to achieving every SDG.

Right to a motorable road = constitutional right. The Kerala High Court affirmed that citizens have a constitutional right to safe, motorable roads.

- Unsafe roads violate the Right to Life under the Constitution.

Renewable energy is more affordable than ever, clean-tech innovations are accelerating, and investment in low-carbon solutions is growing. The next few years are critical, decisive action by governments, businesses, and communities can keep global warming below 2°C and secure a cleaner, sustainable future for all.

This World Food Day, let’s reconnect with real food and the real people behind it. Every time we choose fresh over processed, we nourish our bodies and our communities.

Support your local farmers.
Choose whole, seasonal foods.
Cut down on ultra-processed snacks.
Share, don’t waste.
Practice, don’t preach. 

Because food isn’t just fuel—it’s a story of soil, sweat, and solidarity.

Super Credits for Clean Trucks 

Clean trucks get bonus points! 

Under the new draft,  battery-electric and hydrogen trucks earn “super credits.”

Result: A faster shift to zero-emission freight in India 

International standards shape many of today’s global priorities — from climate action and responsible AI to the metaverse, smart cities, and beyond.
