Abstract

Sustainable urban redevelopment – challenges, instruments, pilot projects

Europe is a developed structure. A large lever for sustainable development, and for succeeding climate protection goals, therefore lies in already developed and existing buildings and structures. But how can their potentials be enhanced? The presentation will outline existing and tested instruments of the Deutschen Gesellschaft für Nachhaltiges Bauen (DGNB e.V.) and will also illustrate how innovative pilot projects can be implemented in practice.
