American International University-Bangladesh (AIUB) is dedicated to contributing to Sustainable Development Goal 11 through initiatives that promote sustainable cities and communities. AIUB organizes student visits to significant cultural sites such as the Liberation War Museum and Panam City, fostering an understanding of heritage conservation.
The university encourages students to engage in projects aimed at preserving local heritage and improving urban infrastructure. For instance, AIUB’s community development project at Jamdani Village focused on improving local living standards. Additionally, students from the Department of Architecture participate in activities like the “Design Dialogue” exhibition, which integrates sustainable design principles in urban development.
AIUB promotes sustainable practices both on and off-campus. The university provides green spaces designed to reduce carbon footprints. Moreover, AIUB’s research, including projects like the “IoT-Based Smart Cities for Sustainable Development”, focuses on using innovative technologies to improve urban planning and infrastructure.
AIUB also ensures inclusive development, addressing the needs of marginalized communities through the “Transforming Slum Dwellings” initiative, which aims to provide better living conditions for underprivileged residents. Through these comprehensive initiatives, AIUB contributes significantly to SDG-11 by fostering sustainable, inclusive, and resilient urban environments.
