Constructing a Sustainable Future #3

contents INTRoDUCTION DISCOVER the online magazine Constructing a sustainable future Reducing the carbon footprint, conserving resources, guaranteeing healthy environments and ensuring the well-being of populations: sustainable construction has much to offer. Solutions already exist, but we need to go further: inventing the materials of tomorrow, adopting new technologies, rethinking construction and renovation methods. The other challenge is to scale up these innovations, which must not only be perfected; they must also be deployed, adapted and implemented everywhere if they are to have a global and lasting impact. To achieve this, a cultural revolution is needed, with an in-depth transformation of mindsets, ways of designing and building, and training of all stakeholders. The creation of favorable political and financial frameworks is also an essential lever, so that the solutions developed result in real future change. In this third special edition of our magazine Constructing a sustainable future, we analyze the many innovative initiatives that are already shaping the future of the sector. And through experts’ eyes and inspiring projects, we explore the levers needed to make a lasting impact on the world we live in. 05
