22 – 30 March
Houw Hoek Hotel, Grabouw, South Africa
School of Architecture and Spatial Design (STADIA)

Themes:

1. Earth, our future – regenerative design and construction
2. Humanity, the future – climate migration, food and water security
3. Confronting the future – creating action through advocacy and mobilisation for change

SBE 2022 will provide practical, down-to-earth viewpoints and approaches to equip you with better ways of working in the design and construction field. The conference addresses how we counteract the impact of the built environment on the planet and adapt to a changing climate, extreme weather, variable resources, social emergencies and biodiversity loss. Unlike most “green” conferences, SBE 2022 does not aim to sell you so-called “green” products or magic bullets that will instantly greenwash your designs. It does not showcase unattainable technological solutions dreamt up by international architects in lab coats or computer screens.
