HORIZON-NEB-01-REGEN-01

The HAMK SmartBuilt aims at transforming the built environment sector with sustainable innovations and practices that reduce environmental impacts, support climate change adaptation and create new sustainable business. We are aiming for a sustainable built environment consisting of a building stock that incorporates materials that are reusable and with low embedded carbon, smart energy systems, and green infrastructure seamlessly integrating engineered structures with vibrant vegetation. We promote systemic change through multidisciplinary and innovative research, producing impactful results that benefit actors in both the industrial and the public sector.

Based on the call topic text, we could contribute to the call text's expected outcomes via our expertise in urban green infrastructure (UGI). In our research projects, we apply the principles of regenerative design to UGI to increase circularity, carbon sequestration, and human well-being in the built environment.
