With Dr. Robbert Snep from Wageningen University & Research and Julia Bloem from AM, we discuss how nature-inclusive and climate-adaptive building can be structurally embedded in area development, organisations and the planning process. What barriers are still holding acceleration back, which transition enablers are needed, and how can measuring, simulating and monitoring help move from ambition to delivery?

- Robbert Snep, sr researcher Green City Research (biodiversity, climate adaptation, health, ecosystems services) WUR
- Julia Bloem, Project manager sustainable area development at AM
This session is made possible by NL Greenlabel.
