Join the GlobalABC Materials Hub and RICS for an insightful webinar on the crucial role of data in achieving a near-zero emission and resilient built environment.
The session will explore the importance of primary and secondary data for comprehensive whole-life carbon assessments, addressing current gaps in the data ecosystem. Key initiatives will be discussed, highlighting the need for collaboration and interoperability to enhance data sharing and utility.
Additionally, the webinar will cover the central role of data in supporting the Buildings Breakthrough priority action B1 on standards and certification. The Chaillot Declaration's efforts to promote international consensus on advancing standards, labels, and certifications through an open data protocol will also be spotlighted.
This webinar is essential for industry professionals committed to near-zero and resilient buildings (NZERBs), offering valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities within the data ecosystem. Engage with experts, learn about the latest initiatives, and discover how to contribute to a more sustainable and resilient built environment.
