Circular economy housing
This conference will explore the findings from the AHURI inquiry, Informing a strategy for circular economy housing in Australia and facilitate a broader discussion about what it will take to decarbonise Australian housing through the full lifecycle from construction through to demolition.
The build, operation and demolition of Australian homes contribute significantly to Australia’s embodied carbon emissions, which will continue to grow as more homes are built. In the face of the climate crisis and the housing affordability crisis, a shift to circular economy housing is urgently needed and requires multi-directional effort.
This conference is for anyone involved in designing and delivering housing and housing products, investors, planners, policymakers at all levels of government, and anyone with an interest in reducing carbon emissions in the residential sector, including in community and social housing.
