Introduction

The Sustainable Digitalisation Project (SDP) is a collaboration of industry, government and academic sustainability and digital leaders with the purpose of making digitalisation in real estate and cities responsible, ethical and sustainable.

The purpose of the SDP’s Sustainable Digitalisation Investment initiative is to establish a set of sustainable digitalisation ESG investment indicators that investors can use to better engage with their investee companies on their approach to digitalisation risk and opportunity management and governance. 

The SDP invites you to participate in the Sustainable Digitalisation Investment initiative by responding to the following questions. This will inform a draft set of sustainable digitalisation indicators for real estate and infrastructure investments.

About the Sustainable Digitalisation Project (SDP)

The SDP exists to start the shift to sustainable digitalisation for the real estate sector and Australian cities. It is a multi-disciplinary collaboration and foremost a thought leadership group. It was born out of the response to a publication called "Crossing the Threshold – a primer for sustainable digitalisation in real estate and cities", and the recognition that industry and government needed an agenda around responsibility, ethics and sustainability with digitalisation in the built environment.
