WUF 12: Event

Activating regenerative construction value chains to address the climate emergency

This event will explore opportunities, challenges, and risks embedded in the transition to regenerative and localized building product value chains. It will specifically focus on the intrinsic benefits of wood and other plant-based, long-life, locally sourced building materials for storing carbon, while critically considering practices of sustainable forest management, natural resource extraction, and bio-regional urban development.
