Hello Science Fans!
How can science and technology help improve infrastructure and industry in the Philippines?
In this video, we talk about the current status of infrastructure and innovations in the world and in The Philippines. We look at how the Covid-19 pandemic has made it clear how we need more resilient infrastructures. We also look at the different indicators that the United Nations (UN) has created to help achieve Sustainable Development Goal 9 (SDG 9): Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure. We recognize the different programs and projects to address the challenges of infrastructure in the Philippines, and the balancing act needed to achieve sustainability! And, of course, we look at the crucial role of STEM for this SDG, and how STEM needs help from other sectors of society in order to achieve its goals.
