In this session, we will discuss Green Buildings as a sustainable alternative to business-as-usual construction focusing on their advantages in the areas of environmental protection, social benefits, and climate change mitigation. We will also explore with architect Nizar Haddad the Lifehaus project which is an exemplary sustainable building that closes the energy, water, and waste loops. The project also breaks from the mainstream by using sustainable mostly local materials that are either natural, reused, or recycled, conciliating ancestral building techniques and cutting-edge eco-friendly architectural solutions. A combination of tradition, and modernism

Host: Nizar Haddad and Mohamad Mortada/ Geography: Lebanon/ Outcomes: Decarbonisation, Resilience, Circularity
