The Nature of Building: Biodiversity & the Built Environment

Protecting nature is at the heart of all sustainable development; understanding how we can provide the homes and infrastructure that we need without undermining nature’s balance is essential to biodiversity, climate resilience, community well-being, and the long-term health of our ecosystems. Those at the forefront of construction and environmental stewardship have the power to drive transformative change, creating a more sustainable future for all.

The Nature of Building: Biodiversity & the Built Environment offers a platform to celebrate the role of built environment professionals in shaping a greener tomorrow. Through collaboration, innovation, and forward-thinking practices, this series showcases the possibilities for a construction industry that prioritises nature at every step.
