Professor Padraic KENNA, Director of the Centre for Housing Law, Rights and Policy at the School of Law, University of Galway, drafted a report for the Council of Europe on the right to housing. It specifically focusses on the worsening situation in the Ukraine but could serve a reference to the announced European Commission affordable housing plan. https://lnkd.in/eNf9RkAV #Ukraine #housingcrisis #housingrights #EuropeanSocialCharter

The European Commission has announced the investment of €4.8 billion of emissions trading revenues into 85 innovative net-zero projects, including Energy-intensive industries. https://lnkd.in/ggdPFh9D #competitiveness #netzero #investments

In this new study, the researchers calculated that if 75% of residential demolitions in New York were shifted to deconstruction , this would create 12,600 new green jobs. The researchers added that the more careful nature of deconstruction also produces improved recycling yields for materials that cannot be reused. Finally, there are substantial climate benefits from reducing embodied carbon emissions. Whilst this is a US study, it makes great reading and offer plenty to think about when discussing circular construction and the announced New Industrial Deal. https://lnkd.in/eY_2_wsP Source: Heisel F. et al.

This European Commission (EC) news article brings forward the results of two studies that mapped the construction skill shortages and training gaps in both Hungary and France.  Such studies should become essential references for the upcoming New Industrial Deal announced by EC President Ursula von der Leyen and the inclusion of construction as an essential pillar of EU competitiveness. https://lnkd.in/eUQXRJZC AIMCC - Association française des industries des produits de construction Stéphanie TUCOULET Pascal EVEILLARD Pascal Magain #newindustrialdeal #construction #competitiveness #France #Hungary #skills #jobs #housing #energyefficiency
