Affordable housing is increasingly becoming one of Europe’s most urgent social, environmental and political challenges. Across cities and regions, communities are facing rising housing costs, growing inequality, energy vulnerability and mounting climate pressures — all while the built environment continues to contribute significantly to carbon emissions and resource consumption.
As Europe works towards the implementation of the European Affordable Housing Plan, an important question emerges: how can housing delivery address affordability without compromising environmental performance, human wellbeing and long-term resilience?
This webinar explores how regenerative approaches can help bridge that gap.
Bringing together voices from across policy, design, sustainability and housing practice, the event will examine how affordability, climate action and social value can be addressed through more integrated and future-oriented housing strategies.
The conversation will touch on themes including:
Rather than approaching housing solely as a quantitative challenge, the webinar highlights the importance of quality, health, resilience and ecological performance in shaping the future of European housing.
The session also creates an opportunity for dialogue between practitioners, researchers, policymakers and organisations working at the intersection of sustainability, social equity and regenerative development.
As Europe rethinks the future of housing, regenerative approaches offer the potential to move beyond minimum compliance and towards housing solutions capable of supporting thriving communities, reduced environmental impact and long-term societal value.
