Scientific Panels, Rethinking Ressources - Debate Session

Resources are getting scarcer, and architects must address this issue. By using novel materials and recycling on a much greater scale, architecture can change its approach to resources.
The UIA2023 Call for Papers has demonstrated that the scientific community is constantly pushing the boundaries of architectural practice and coming up with innovative answers to difficult questions. In this session we will summarize and discuss trends and insights from the many scientific papers in the Rethinking Resources track.
