New partnership with UNLEASH: reimagining the future of the built environment
A just green transition is one of the defining challenges of our time. Cities across the world are navigating complex dilemmas: How do we build for density while preserving the green spaces that keep cities liveable? How do we transition to climate-neutral mobility without excluding the people who rely on today’s systems? How do we adapt our built environments to shifting realities in ways that strengthen, rather than fracture, community life?
We’re excited to fund NGO, UNLEASH, in collaboration with BLOXHUB, Real Dania, and the Nordic Arctic Programme (via the Nordic Council of Ministers), to address these questions while reimagining the future of the built environment in Europe and beyond.
Through this partnership, we will host three Hacks in Ramboll offices across Copenhagen, London, and Singapore; bring the UNLEASH Europe Innovation Lab to life to equip youth to rethink how places are designed, governed, and experienced; and offer continuous support via the UNLEASH Innovation Hub, with mentorship, tools, and technical expertise provided by Ramboll experts among others.
At a time when Europe faces defining choices about the future of our cities, this partnership strengthens our ability to support young people to lead the way. Ramboll brings deep technical expertise and a long-standing commitment to sustainable urban development, and the Ramboll Foundation crucial funding, and together we can create the conditions for bold ideas to emerge and take root. I’m proud that we are once again joining forces to inspire the next generation of changemakers who will shape more inclusive, resilient, and climate-ready communities.
Ramboll’s expertise in sustainable urban planning and their commitment to user-centric, evidence-based solutions play a vital role in helping us turn these dilemmas into opportunities for thriving societies. Together, we aim to equip young changemakers with the tools, insights, and perspectives needed to shape cities that are resilient, inclusive, and climate ready.
We’re excited to join forces with the other partners and contribute with funding and technical insights of the Ramboll Group to UNLEASH’s work with young changemakers around our shared agendas such as resilient cities, climate adaptation, liveability, and sustainable urban development. UNLEASH helps talents become real drivers of change for the future, and the world needs it.
