Lecture description
In debates about the economic viability of sustainable construction, one aspect is far too often overlooked: the health of building occupants. Given demographic change and the enormous healthcare expenditures in Germany, this seems downright paradoxical. But how can the way we design and build buildings contribute to protecting people’s health? This question is at the heart of the panel discussion, which will begin with the presentation of a study published exclusively for BAU that analyzes, from an economic perspective, how sustainable construction can function as preventive health infrastructure.
