About the conference

The InnoRenew CoE International Conference 2022, “Rethinking buildings and materials for a sustainable future,” will provide a forum to explore renewable materials and their use for creating healthy, sustainable buildings during four thematic sessions:

Environmentally friendly and energy-efficient materials and practices to improve the built environment

Material processing and product design improvements for all stages of a building’s lifecycle to reduce harm and increase efficiency.

State-of-the-art solutions for building design and assessment

Technologies for building design optimization, sustainable construction management and service life monitoring, including building information modeling (BIM), digital twin, sensor technologies, internet of things (IoT), life cycle assessment (LCA) and life cycle costing (LCC).

Built environments for well-being

Materials, designs, technologies and promotional activities to improve physical and mental well-being.

Bridging the gap between research and society

Interdisciplinary research, case studies, knowledge transfer, acceptance studies, industry implementation, policymaking, communication strategies, and everything in between that forms practices to take society towards a sustainable future.
