Beyond Sustainable Construction: Designing and Developing the Sustainable Community

Designing and developing sustainable community is about more than just buildings. Buildings often last only 25 to 50 years before they need substantial re-investment, but sustainable economic, social and cultural fabric creates communities that will choose a sustainable future for generations to come. The course will practically examine what economic, legal, contractual, cultural, marketing and communications strategies can be combined with sustainable building practices to initiate long term sustainable communities. Students will develop a long term sustainability strategy for a real development to be built and are encouraged to bring their own projects for discussion. All Levels.

Please Note: This class will begin at 5pm on Sunday.
