Singapore Discovery Centre


            Introduction


            The Singapore Discovery Centre (SDC) is a prominent hub for
            education and leisure in Singapore, offering visitors insights
            into the  nation’s history,  culture, and  future development
            (Figure 1).  The necessity for sustainability management
            systems at SDC stems from the global call to address
            environmental issues and foster sustainable progress.

            The sustainability management systems at SDC yields several
            significant benefits, including:

            •       Environmental Conservation
            •       Cost Savings
            •       Reputation and Stakeholder Engagement
            •       Educational Opportunities
                                                                          Figure 1: Singapore Discovery Centre.
            Aligned with the Singapore Green Plan 2030, SDC has
            established several targets, such as cutting emissions and
            waste by 50% and 10% by 2025 (Figure 2).
