From sustainability to regeneration: Rethinking the built environment?

This event brings together speakers from industry and academia for a series of short lectures, followed by a panel discussion and networking.

Focused on the potential shift from sustainability to regeneration, the session will explore what regenerative design means for the built environment, and whether it signals a meaningful change in approach or a reframing of existing ideas.

Covering a range of perspectives, the discussion will explore design thinking, urban contexts, material approaches and applied case studies, opening up space for critical reflection and exchange.
