AIA NC - Regenerative Design

We have been very fortunate in having firms within our state and region with expertise in advanced practice models and solutions, willing to share details of their professional service offerings.  For this program, HDR's Sustainability Design Leader, Eileen Gohr is sharing their approach to "Regenerative Design," which provides a holistic view of performance metrics that should be at the center of design. The program will bring into focus key design goals allowing us to explore net positive impacts, set achievable goals against existing benchmarks, and consider each of our projects in their broader context.

AIA NC - Countdown to 2030

The built environment is the single largest source of global greenhouse gas emissions—making our industry a key player in the fight against climate change. As identified by Architecture 2030 in 2006 and adopted by the AIA 2030 Commitment, 2030 is a pivotal deadline for emissions reductions. This course charts the Countdown to 2030: where we started, where we stand, and how we accelerate toward a zero-carbon future. Attendees will explore built environment climate targets, celebrate industry progress, and discuss the path to 2030 and a decarbonized built environment. Key topics include balancing embodied and operational carbon, the power of building reuse, and the role of traditional knowledge in decarbonization. Join us to gain actionable insights and be part of the movement shaping a zero carbon built environment.
