About The Living Building Challenge
The Living Building Challenge is a holistic building standard intended to be both a philosophical structure and an advocacy tool. We will be joined by practitioners in the affordable housing field who will discuss how their involvement in the Living Building Challenge helped them become involved in advocating for change. We will also include panels to discuss how key innovators are working on the ground towards decarbonized and healthy housing. Lastly, we will provide a vision of Living Affordable Housing and discuss two projects that are making that vision a reality.
