Dr. Frederick Lee holds a PhD in Urban Planning from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and serves as the Executive Director of the Centre for Water Technology and Policy at The University of Hong Kong. His current research focuses on two critical water sustainability nexus issues: the water-energy-climate linkage and water-ecology interactions. He is completing a government-funded applied research project that explores how the integration of smart technologies and behavioral ‘nudging’ strategies can enhance water conservation outcomes in both domestic and non-domestic contexts. Dr. Lee also serves as Project Director for the Water-smart Taskforce Programme, a city-wide, government-sponsored water conservation initiative. He is a Fellow at Civic Exchange.

My Sustainability Goals for 2025:

Goal #1: A significant reduction in the overall level of freshwater consumption in both the domestic and the non-domestic sectors

Goal #2: An enhanced level of community understanding of the importance of prioritizing water loss control in managing the city’s water system
