Doha | Integrating Circular Economy thinking into buildings' Construction
Free CPD event for members of the Middle East and Africa Centre
The 4th edition of Qatar Sustainability Week this year is from 26 October – 2 November 2019. The aim of the week is to engage the community in a wide range of sustainability-oriented activities. CIOB are partnering on this event and delivering this CPD supported by IEMA
As world leaders continue to become more aware of the urgency to take critical action to optimize Climate Change resilience, the buildings construction industry is in pole position to change significantly operational "norms". Adopting direct measures to move quickly and definitely from a Linear to a Circular Economy is not only achievable, but necessary and shown to make long-term both environmental and economic sense. Harry Sealy, Chairperson of IEMA, will introduce some key concepts of Circular Economy and how these may possibly be explored and applied to the buildings construction industry - short-term and longer-term.
