There is a critical need to drive awareness of the broad-based benefits of smart and responsible infrastructure, to establish what “good” looks like, and create a roadmap to enable better decision-making.
A first-of-its-kind research initiative, the Infrastructure for Good program compares infrastructure ecosystems in 30 countries around the world. It explores their capacity to deliver quality infrastructure in a sustainable way and examines how well they use infrastructure to address key economic, social and environmental gaps.
The centerpiece of the research, the Infrastructure for Good barometer, is complemented by a rich collection of videos, podcasts and case studies that explore the nuances of infrastructure for good around the world.
