The built environment and construction industry are in a position of considerable responsibility and influence in delivering a more climate-resilient economy. Climate action continues to be one of the key drivers for the construction sector and will remain so for the foreseeable future, both in Ireland and internationally. As Ireland works toward ambitious carbon reduction targets while supporting sustainable economic and social development, significant opportunities are emerging in the retrofit of existing buildings, sustainable infrastructure delivery, circular construction practices, low-carbon materials, and innovative approaches to the design and construction of the built environment. This webinar series explores the latest developments in sustainable construction processes, technologies, and products, providing participants with practical insights, industry case studies, research findings, and best practices that can support the transition to a more resilient, productive, and sustainable construction sector. The programme aligns with: SDG 4 – Quality Education SDG 9 – Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure SDG 13 – Climate Action This webinar series are also supported by The Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland (RIAI) Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland (SCSI) Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland () Constriction Industry Federation (CIF) More information about this and future events: https://constructinnovate.ie/2026/09/...
