About this event

How do we change the political UK trajectory to allow for a just transition that supports the built environment and our planet?

Amidst all the current political climate chaos, we are proposing an alternative positive vision for a regenerative future. As a profession, we have the solutions but lack the policy framework to enact meaningful change.

Architects: Join us for an online event to gain insight into an emerging Five Point Plan developed by key industry leaders - including our speakers:

Julia Barfield - Managing Director, Marks Barfield Architects + UK Architects Declare Steering Group

Will Arnold - Head of Climate Action at The Institution of Structural Engineers

Anna Woodeson - Director, PUNL Power Up North London

Zoe Watson - Head of Sustainability, Allies and Morrison + UK Architects Declare Steering Group

The UK Architects Declare Plan for the Built Environment represents a pragmatic, impactful, and actionable framework designed to drive economic transitions that not only benefit public health but also address vital climate targets. Implementing these policies has the potential to create new jobs, reduce pollution, restore nature, and provide economic incentives across the UK. The plan emphasizes critical areas such as resource efficiency, circular economy practices, and nature enhancement, all of which can lead to substantial cost savings and environmental advantages. Furthermore, it introduces policies promoting health and wellbeing, social justice, and community engagement - aligning perfectly with the growing demand for high-quality, sustainable development.

Join us to discuss the policy priorities and crystallise the vision.

We need your support more than ever to help lobby the Government into action. Come join us and have your say!
