Introducing The Arcadis Sustainable Cities Index 2024, our most groundbreaking sustainability report to date. Delve into a holistic view across the three core pillars of sustainability: Planet, People, and Profit.

For the first time, we’ve included a fourth pillar, Progress. This exciting new dimension tracks transformative change. It reveals the impact of sustainability initiatives over the last decade, showcasing cities’ paths toward sustainable success.

Within the report, our sustainability experts provide guidance on designing and creating environmentally friendly cities and identify areas for growth and improvements. They also share recommendations across five key realms and shed light on the public and private collaboration efforts needed to realize the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
