Presidency event: Ministers and Mayors on buildings as a critical climate solution

Venue: The Scottish Event Campus (SEC) –  Pen Y Fan
Date: 11 November
Time: 16:00 – 17:30 GMT
Description: Ministers and mayors are uniting behind the urgency for action with one voice, one ambition: to deliver and enable a zero-emission, efficient, and resilient built environment. Panelists will discuss built environment action at the national and local level, the need for collaboration and the need for government to provide an enabling framework throughout the value chain. The event will feature local governments as ‘challengers’ who can bridge the policy gap.
