Universities have a unique opportunity to lead the drive for sustainable buildings and a more circular built environment.
This webinar will explore the latest circular economy thinking as applied to university estates and buildings, and provide examples of projects that are starting to make the most of circularity. It will show how universities have a real opportunity to exploit the concept of buildings as material banks, and show the value of this to university estates departments, design teams, student populations and wider stakeholders. It will explore the relationship between circularity and whole life carbon assessments, and demonstrate how circular thinking and reuse can help reduce carbon emissions, improve resource efficiency and provide more adaptable and resilient buildings.
