Description
Increasing the resilience of buildings against natural disasters, coupled with decarbonization, are daunting challenges for the market and institutions that govern building codes and standards, registered professionals, community planning and the energy sector. Current jurisdictional, institutional and professional silos are fragmenting the market and creating unnecessary conflict that threatens public confidence. Sub-national governments and the engineering profession are positioned to drive the evolution of the real estate, property management and energy sectors to catalyze investment toward optimal levels of building performance. This includes a principled approach to mitigate risks, maximize public benefits and minimize costs, while allocating responsibilities to the key influencers.
