About Lakshmi M.
With a decade of experience in sustainable design and urban systems’ thinking, I am a Senior Associate at CSTEP.I specialize in climate-sensitive spatial planning, capacity building, and policy research to advance adaptation strategies. My work spans nature-based solutions, urban vulnerability mapping, and low-carbon development, collaborating with organizations such as UN-Habitat and the National University of Singapore. As a registered architect and published author, I bridge the disciplines of cities, nature, and climate to drive evidence-based solutions.My mission is to empower local governments and civic action groups with actionable planning strategies and policy frameworks that harness nature to build livable, resilient cities.
