KEY LEARNING 4 Well-informed but insufficiently trained stakeholders: an obstacle to concrete commitments? While stakeholders claim to be familiar with sustainable construction, only 28% feel they fully understand what it entails, and just 35% of professionals have received specialized training. This still limited proficiency in the subject may help explain the limited concrete commitments in the field. Also, 78% of students consider training in sustainable construction to be a differentiating factor in the job market, but only 40% would refuse an offer from a non-committed company (5% categorically). 67% of professionals say that they evaluate the carbon footprint of their sustainable construction projects, but only 30% do so systematically: this result, while better than last year, remains low. 51% of elected officials say they want to exclude from public construction contracts projects that do not take into account sustainable construction methods, but only 37% have actually taken action, which nonetheless represents an encouraging signal. Finally, associations are not being left behind: 51% would consider boycotting companies with an insufficient commitment to sustainable construction, although only 24% have actually done so: these results remain stable from last year. This intention-action gap highlights the difficulty in transforming awareness into concrete action. 37% Base: professionals working in sustainable construction (1,030 respondents) only one answer possible 30% 33% Yes, systematically Yes, but only occasionally No, never Do you assess the carbon footprint of your sustainable building projects? 30% +10* * Change compared with 2024 results. 16
