Project description
ReBuilt is a research project that promotes the novel concept of a regenerative built environment and demonstrates how it can be implemented in practice. A core aim is to assess the potential of nature-based materials to meet future construction demands and to estimate the potential of the built environment to act as a carbon sink. We apply quantitative methods and scenario-based approaches. Four in-depth case studies in Germany, Bhutan, Indonesia, and South Africa complement the global assessments. You will be part of an interdisciplinary project team of over 15 researchers and other collaborators.
