AIA International Spring Conference 2024 Decarbonizing Construction: From Material Production to Preservative Adaptive Reuse

  
The construction industry is a significant emitter of greenhouse gases (GHGs), from the production of materials to the heating, cooling and maintenance of existing buildings and infrastructure. To achieve emission reduction targets by 2050, new low carbon technologies and tools are needed to support further advancements in the construction sector. 
 
New solutions will support these requirements, including lifecycle performance of buildings and infrastructure, digitalization, construction practices and materials. From a regulatory perspective, there are multiple paths to achieve net zero. This provides an opportunity to advocate for careful system upgrades and modernization of existing facilities. It also elevates the importance of building reuse as part of climate action and a residential solution. 
 
Join AIA International for a global discussion about how architects and others around the world are finding innovative ways to evolve the industry! 
 
The 2024 Spring Conference will be held online between Thursday 14 March and Saturday 16 March 2024. Free for AIA members!
