Although nature is the core of human existence, people are exceeding their limits of consumption and disturbance to nature through the rapid process of modernization and urbanization.  It is important to keep in mind that there will be no future, without nature which will ultimately lead to the loss of all materialistic values embraced by humans. As the initial phase of NextStep ’20, this event was organized to raise the awareness of the undergraduates about facing challenges created by urbanization in the development process.
