BB present at Pixii Expert Day 'From collective renovation to district renovation'
On behalf of the Flemish Government Bureau Bouwtechniek together with UGent, Lab A and BLAF architects studied the possibilities for creating climate districts.
Climate districts: transition process towards the sustainability of urban fabric.
We define the climate district primarily as a series of measures that have been taken to initiate a transition process that accompanies the sustainability of our urban fabric.
We distinguish 2 reflexes:
- climate reflex: transformation also applies to energy systems, mobility, presence of water and green areas, resource use and waste processing
- district reflex : location, social cohesion, real estate potential, social organization and the financial and logistical capacity of the residents also play a role.
We aim for a comitted contribution to the intended transition process, a significant change in mentality and a shared responsibility of citizens, governments and market parties.
This pilot project aspires to develop strategies that can be applied on a larger scale.
