Building circular futures

The built environment is a major cause of resource depletion. Current excessive extraction of natural resources and land use requires a revisited approach to how the built environment operates. The concept of sufficiency, which advocates meeting human needs within planetary limits, is gaining increasing attention as an enabler for reducing resource demand and for circularity thinking and practice. During this one-and-a-half-hour webinar, participants will learn from sector experts about how integrating sufficiency principles in projects can lead to better resource management outcomes. 

The webinar is primarily targeted at built environment practitioners, such as architects, planners, and project developers, but also at local government representatives and real estate investors for whom circularity and resource management will gain more importance going forward, especially with a view to future taxonomy alignment, the ability to secure green finance, and due diligence reporting and disclosure.

The organiser behind this event is Climate Positive Europe Alliance AISBL (CPEA), an independent think tank based in Brussels. CPEA’s work follows a pan-European approach, building a bridge between policy and practice.
