Impact of Construction on Society in Emerging Economies 

Construction environments in emerging economies often have challenges which are not seen in developed countries, including carbon intensive, unhealthy and unsafe buildings, different perceptions of safety, urban poverty, and barriers for people with disabilities. However, this often results in pragmatism and ingenuity. This webinar provides an overview of challenges faced by our global panel, but also the role the construction industry and professional bodies can play in providing access to services and education, alleviating poverty and inequality.
