Architecture as a tool to achieve the 17 United Nation Sustainable Development Goals

Abstract

As a researcher and architect, the author creates several architectural works, most of them are located on the Java island, Indonesia. The author believes that building with ecological principles and green architecture is important today to adapt to climate change and prevent the worst from happening. By testing these projects with the theory of ecology and green architecture, the authors get several conclusions that every project built must be able to answer climate problems that occur at this time. In this paper the author will describe the use of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals or we commonly knows as SDGs in his works on the island of Java, Indonesia. Architecture is a tool to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
