On the first day of the 3rd Annual Conference for Sustainable Development, organised by the Centre for Sustainable Development, University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh, academics from Bangladesh and across the world gathered to discuss cutting edge research on climate change, migration, future sustainable cities and innovation.

Over the course of the inaugural and plenary session, critical analysis of "common sense" positions were the order of the day, as well as exciting and innovative approaches in city planning approaches and product and systems design that tackle the sustainability challenges of the future.
