In order to better acquaint the academic and wider public with the activities of the CROSS-REIS project and to promote understanding of the concept of the regenerative economy, an INFO day is planned at the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering, on Tuesday, October 15^th 2024.

As part of the info-day, we will organize a roundtable on the topic: From Circular to Regenerative Tackling Challenges in the Built Environment.

The CROSS-REIS project encourages cooperation between universities and research centres from 5 developing European countries (Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Croatia) and 3 institutions from leading research countries (Norway, Spain, Italy).

During the information day, we will present an in-depth concept of regenerative economy, with a special focus on the built environment. Through the roundtable discussion titled From Circular to Regenerative: Tackling Challenges in the Built Environment, we will address the desire to preserve a healthy environment and regenerate degraded areas, along with the need for effective investment processes in the built environment.

The CROSS-REIS Project goes beyond research frameworks and actively promotes collaboration with various stakeholders. We invite everyone who can contribute to a more effective transition to participate. As part of the event, we will announce future activities including an educational workshop for local government employees, focusing on green public procurement in the construction sector and beyond.
