Smart Minds, Smart Habitats
The industrial revolution caused a population shift to the cities and placing stress on natural resources. This, along with other significant global events led to alarming consequences that call for action towards a sustainable future.
Welcome to FutureSake, a youth-centred program around Sustainable Habitats, delivered in various sustainable cities across the globe. We envision co-creating knowledge societies that construct, share and use knowledge for the prosperity and well-being of the people and the environment.
Our program aims to trigger curiosity and activate creative thought process among Generation Z in order to build a smarter future and transform GenZ into a Generation of Solvers. We engage our young participants in various assignments including travel, simulations, projects, and internships among other learning modules.

SINGAPORE
Over the past 50 years, Singapore has transformed from a sleepy island to a pulsing, futuristic metropolis. It ranks among the best countries on most human development indices. Any city of this size would be forgiven for suffering from congestion, pollution, gridlock and any number of infrastructure problems, but Singapore thrives with it’s futuristic ideas around energy, water & sanitation, land use, mobility, food and biodiversity.
HYDERABAD
Hyderabad, a hub for biodiversity, is home to a rich variety of flora and fauna yearning to be explored. The city was planned with great detail and was once home to over 7000 artificial lakes built by its past rulers. Unprecedented development and increase in population have led to the rapid depletion of water bodies and greenery. This extremely rocky terrain has its own challenges and slowly Hyderabad is charting its way to become a sustainable city yet again.
BENGALURU
Bengaluru was once known as the Garden City of India filled but the boon of the IT Sector in Bengaluru saw unparalleled widespread expansion that led to the degradation of the natural beauty of this city. This served as a clarion call to those who took the mantle on themselves and are vigorously working to restore the lush green spaces and pleasant water bodies of Bengaluru.
