Conference language: English

CONFERENCE MAIN POINTS:

Renovation (using sustainable & green principles) could be seen as an opportunity:

1. to restore the built environment while protecting the environment itself,

2. to exploit business opportunities: historical buildings, if accurately renovated and occupied, have a greater value on the market

WHAT TO EXPECT?

1. Are green principles included in European and world regulations when it comes to restoring historic buildings?
2. What is the biggest obstacle to restoring historic buildings according to the green principles? Are they conservators, lack of funding, ownership or lack of knowledge and information at local and national level, or something else?
3. Investors are focused on achieving as much savings as possible with less investment and they are often on the opposite side of the conservator – whose basic interest is  preserving the building in its original condition. How to overcome this gap?
4. Examples of the world’s best projects for reconstructing protected buildings
