A renewed focus on sustainability and wellbeing is one of the positive trends emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the past year, buyers' sentiment towards owning their own home has increased. These decisions appear to be more positively influenced by aspects of spacious open spaces and greenery, daylighting, ventilation, air and water quality and walkability - key indicators for sustainable planning. The scope of sustainability in real estate is therefore likely to expand to include a development's ability for its residents to better deal with public health emergencies and expand further into resilience and healthy livelihoods.
NAMRATA MEHRA, Lead CSR and Sustainability, Godrej Properties Ltd, focuses on the need for innovative waste management to build a sustainable future.
