IMPAC3T
This project focuses on integrating a people- and environment-friendly process approach in circular, constructive and co-creative renovation projects.
Circular building solutions in collective urban renewal projects
ImpaC³t wants to test the practical application of circular building solutions in collective urban renewal projects in Flanders. The proposed Living Lab (LL) will broaden and deepen existing strategies and solutions on circularity to urban renewal at neighbourhood level. It will thereby accelerate the renovation wave (2050) of the existing patrimony in a futureproof and circular way. The LL is intended for and with a diversity of target groups, from the most vulnerable to the strongest shoulders.
The impaC³t project will renovate a number of building blocks in Ghent, Bruges and Tienen /Landen through a collective approach.
The project will develop a decision-making framework for applying circular solutions in collective renovations. It does so through co-creation with relevant quintuple helix stakeholders and a mix of target groups including both private owner-occupiers, owner-occupiers, landlords, real estate developers, autonomous municipal urban development companies, and housing companies. The project will maximise complementarity between technical, financial and legal solutions to boost circular economy in collective urban renewal projects.
