13 May 2026
Regenerative Design Stage
Regenerative Design

The Regenerative Places programme aims to shift built environment practice towards place-based regenerative outcomes. 

  • How can retrofit can catalyse community resilience, ecological enhancement, and broader social and economic benefits through collaborative local strategies?
  • How can industry and policymakers embed regenerative principles early in design and delivery?
  • What does “regenerative” means in real-world projects, and pathways to deliver measurable, long-term value for people, nature and climate?
