How can policy help make a climate resilient built environment in Scotland
About this event
The consultation on the Draft Scottish National Adaptation Plan 2024-2029 (SNAP 3) has closed. What did you think about it and how do you think this will enable the built environment industry in Scotland?
The UKGBC Resilience & Nature and Policy teams are hosting an online roundtable to hear about what has worked well from members in Scotland, while identifying the gaps and needs to achieve climate resilience in the built environment. The event also aims to create a local industry network that will lead the conversation towards real change.
This event will bring together key insights and provide the opportunity to hear from multiple built environment stakeholders based in Scotland, to share successful practices and identify the challenges for implementing climate adaptation and achieving climate resilience.
The roundtable will feature presentations, a Q&A session, and breakout group discussions aimed at identifying areas for improvement in SNAP and developing actionable policy recommendations. Join us for this important conversation to drive forward climate resilience initiatives in the built environment.
David Steen (UKGBC Senior Policy Advisor for Scotland) and Hannah Giddings (UKGBC Head of Resilience and Adaptation) will lead this insightful conversation.
