General Introduction

The International Youth Talk brings together distinguished students across ASEAN and beyond to exchange insights on emerging global issues. This edition highlights “Sustainable Architecture: How We Can Protect the Environment with Buildings.” As urbanization and climate change increasingly shape the future of our cities, this webinar invites participants to explore how architecture and building design can become powerful tools for environmental protection. From energy-efficient structures to climate-responsive designs,

sustainable architecture plays a crucial role in reducing carbon footprints while improving quality of life. Through keynote presentations, case studies, and interactive discussions, the session encourages cross-cultural learning and a deeper understanding of how young architects, planners, policymakers, and students can contribute to greener, more resilient built environments. Participants will reflect on local and regional contexts, innovative materials, and design strategies that support sustainability while responding to the social and environmental challenges faced by ASEAN countries and beyond.

This Course is for

1. University students and young researchers interested in understanding how sustainable architecture and environmentally conscious building design can address climate change, urban challenges, and environmental protection in rapidly developing cities.
2. Early-career professionals, architecture and engineering students, urban planners, and designers seeking to explore innovative, eco-friendly design strategies, green materials, and energy-efficient technologies that respond to the needs of modern society and younger generations.
3. Scholars, lecturers, and innovators focusing on architecture, urban studies, environmental science, and cross-disciplinary approaches that integrate sustainability, technology, and social responsibility in the built environment.
4. Global-minded participants eager to gain cross-cultural perspectives on how different countries—particularly within ASEAN—implement sustainable building practices to balance development, environmental preservation, and community well-being.

Benefits of Learning

1. Gain insights into the latest trends and research in sustainable architecture, including eco-friendly design principles, green building technologies, and innovative approaches to reducing environmental impact in the built environment.
2. Understand how architectural design, material choices, and urban planning influence energy efficiency, climate resilience, community well-being, and environmental sustainability, particularly in rapidly developing regions.
3. Connect theory with practice by exploring real-world case studies of sustainable buildings and urban projects that successfully integrate environmental responsibility with functional and aesthetic design.
4. Enhance cross-cultural understanding through discussions among students and global-minded participants, sharing perspectives on how different countries—especially within ASEAN—approach sustainable architecture based on local climate, culture, and resources.
5. Expand academic and professional networks by engaging with young people passionate about architecture, sustainability, and environmental action, fostering collaboration and shared learning across disciplines and communities.
