Great strategy session . So valuable

🌟 Gain valuable insights from Tina Paillet, FRICS at the RICS Built Environment European Summit in Bilbao! 🌟 Her reflections emphasize the pivotal role of #Leadership, #Education, and #Training in driving urban renewal and sustainable development. Discover how Bilbao’s transformation underscores the importance of investing in nature and social value. 🎯 💡 In the context of #India, Tina’s message is especially relevant. As our cities grow and evolve, the need for skilled professionals and strong leadership in sustainable practices becomes ever more critical. Emphasizing training and education, she highlights that enhancing competencies and collective efforts are key to advancing #Sustainability in our #Construction industry. 🌲 🏗 Leadership at all levels is vital in shaping the future. It's the individual actions, decisions, and commitments that drive impactful changes. Let’s embrace these lessons and work towards a more sustainable and resilient future for our urban environments. 🤝 #CivilEngineers #CivilEngineeringGraduates #CivilEngineeringStudents

Globally, there are very few urban centres within World Heritage Areas. Being an LGA nested within and adjacent to a World Heritage Area comes with inherent challenges and opportunities. It means there is the need to integrate ecological principles at all levels of urban and peri-urban planning, development, and management. At our conference, we explored sensitive urban and water design to learn about creating healthier and more sustainable cities. In case you missed it, here’s a quick recap from this session, titled “Building a Sustainable Urban Interface with World Heritage.”

❓ ❓ ❓ Can research influence policy ? We researchers tend to think we know what real-world situations are, but it is difficult to know what you do not know. It requires leaving your comfort zone. The intensive ICCROM workshop “Managing #Urban #Heritage for #Sustainable #Development in World Heritage Context” in Bamberg (Germany) brought #AGREE team with amazing WH Site Team Managers / Coordinators (see Francesca Giliberto, PhD's post to know who they are). In addition to the issues in Francesca's post, we also talked about the need to break the individual silos, to come together, to leave comfort zones, to mediate the change (and -of course- mapping the attributes 😀). I do believe that research can influence policy, but only when it is informed by the realities of local conditions and only when silos are broken.

Hear from Tom Faulkner, Managing Director for Hines in the Nordics, live and in person at the 2024 ULI Australia Conference. Tom will unpack the nature of the Nordic living sector (compared to other UK/European markets), private ownership versus rental segments, relevant regulation, distribution of public housing, the proportionate share of institutional capital that really drives the market, and how product development is so essential to support relevant, affordable housing for a growing and urbanising population. Alongside regulation and financing, Tom will address construction and procurement, where the Nordic discussion on ‘build to live and millennial strategies’ can be quite progressive especially as it relates to community, sustainability performance and decarbonisation. Global thought leaders like Tom will help solve Australia's decarbonisation challenges, unpack best practice outcomes for the densification of our built environment, and identify what we can do right now to enable the next generations to thrive in our cities. Meet Tom and other world-class experts from Australia and around the globe and experience a unique program of conversations and presentations that will stimulate your thinking, grow your knowledge, and empower you to forge connections across the ULI's global network. 👉 REGISTER NOW: https://lnkd.in/g_f3eNaM #ULIAustralia #ULIGlobalFutures #CitiesInTransformation

In this Insights piece, Sam Edelstein, AIA, explores five key lessons from past urban redevelopment — from public-private partnerships to cultural investment — and how they are shaping HGA projects like Davidson Park, Sherman Phoenix, and The Heights.

Reducing the gap between urban and rural areas passes through sustainable mobility and better use of technologies for improving mobility options for all. Today I'll be running an online seminar on smart mobility for the cities of ECONNECTING, the URBACT network focusing on sustainable urban-rural mobility solutions within the 30-minute territory. The network, led by Unione della Romagna Faentina, is developing innovative strategies and integrated plans for regenerating public spaces and improving quality of life in 8 small and medium municipalities across Europe.
