As the climate crisis relentlessly batters communities and practices grapple with increasing regulation, °ÄÃÅÍõÖÐÍõ Southeast is tremendously excited to announce the launch of the °ÄÃÅÍõÖÐÍõ South East Sustainability Group at the 2024 °ÄÃÅÍõÖÐÍõ SE winter festivities.

Join the group for their very first in-person event on the new Net Zero Carbon Building Standard (NZCBS) for architects—including a panel discussion on its viability, and our role in designing and implementing low-carbon low-energy buildings.

This joint event will be held in conjunction with School of Architecture, Design, and Planning at the University of Kent, on the delightful Canterbury Campus.

We will first hear from a range of speakers talking about the new standard and ways their practices are already battling towards Net Zero in both retrofit and commercial/residential architecture.

Led by the new ACAN Student Ambassador, Joe Bass, our panel of °ÄÃÅÍõÖÐÍõ Members will debate mission-critical questions about the NZCBS, then take questions from the audience.

Established for knowledge-sharing and best practice, come along to also learn about and join in our new SE Sustainability Group, where we will also have the opportunity to meet and mingle in the newly-refurbished School of Architecture Studios

Refreshments will be provided, thanks to our event sponsor, Ibstock.

The event is open to all, however tickets must be booked in advance.
