Very glad to take part in the 3rd Global Meeting of the COST Action FOLIAGE (FOstering Large-scale ImplementAtion of energy GEostructure) in Istanbul at Boğaziçi University. 🇹🇷 It was a great opportunity to meet all my colleagues and friends from Working Group 2: "Case Studies and Performance Data" and move forward with our work (Prof. Diana Salciarini, Prof. Marco Barla, Prof. Giorgia Dalla Santa, Arianna Lupattelli, Marco Gerola, Mouadh RAFAI, Giulia Capati, Jannis Epting, Jelena Thiana, Martina Nicolino, Adrian Thylbert Brunner and Martina Scerbo). After having compiled a database with around 1000 examples of real-world energy geostructure installations, we are going to choose some of them to draft technical fact sheets. The aim is always the same: promote the worldwide large-scale implementation of energy geostructures.

📢 New publication by the Building Performance Institute Europe (BPIE)! The new short paper provides 10 recommendations to the new European Commision that should ensure that buildings contribute to Europe's growth and strengthen the social fabric. Indeed, these 10 policy priorities aim at achieving growth and social value through #resilient, #healthy and affordable #zeroemission buildings. To achieve these goals, BPIE suggests that, ▪️ All European institutions give the built environment coordinated attention; ▪️ The European Commission puts the following priorities on its Strategic Agenda for 2024-2029 and in Mission Letters to incoming Commissioners; ▪️ The Commission prioritises specific action points in its 2025 Work Plan. 🏙️ BUILDSPACE Project will help providing innovative tools to support buildings’ #energyefficiency and #sustainability. 👉 To know BPIE's 10 priorities: https://lnkd.in/gYTRN_ED 👀 To discover BUILDSPACE: https://lnkd.in/eH8kVzxh EUSPA - EU Agency for the Space Programme SingularLogic  SPACE HELLAS S.A.  DSS Lab, EPU-NTUA  CARTIF  Universidad Politécnica de Madrid European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts  nazka mapps Mobics S.A.  alda* - European Association for Local Democracy  Mostostal Warszawa S.A.  Municipality of Piraeus  IMZI Blue-green Infrastructure Institute Riga Planning Region  University of Cambridge #BUILDSPACEProject #HorizonEU #SustainabilityofCities

Blue Prosperity Micronesia Launches Ocean Use Survey to Support Sustainable Marine Resource Management in Yap State Thursday, March 21, 2024//DYCA Web The Blue Prosperity Micronesia (BPM) has initiated the Ocean Use Survey (OUS) project in collaboration with stakeholders, aiming to promote sustainable marine resource growth in Yap and the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). The project was officially launched with a planning meeting involving members of the project’s planning group (PG), including representatives from the Council of Pilung and Tamol. The OUS, facilitated through the online SeaSketch mapping tool, seeks to gather data from respondents to identify and map valued or utilized marine areas, thereby aiding in the evaluation of tradeoffs and the formulation of solutions aligned with planning objectives. The input from the community is particularly emphasized to ensure their needs are considered in the Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) process. The collected data will contribute to the development of a comprehensive Marine Spatial Plan for FSM, aiming to safeguard 30% of its waters while promoting sustainable economic growth. All stakeholders and community members are encouraged to participate in the survey to contribute to the creation of a healthier marine environment for present and future generations. (For further information and participation, contact the Division of Marine Resources at the Department of Resources and Development. Tel: 350-2350.) #yapgov #yapnews #BlueProsperityMicronesia #MarineSpatialPlanning

“We need to overcome this circular economy of inefficiency and unnecessary risk when it comes to project planning around utilities,” says Mell Greenall. B.Sustainability, MBA, GAICD, BYDA CEO. BYDA is acutely aware of the need to move from old-school PDFs and printable maps marking utility location and into digital mapping. In a recent interview with Position magazine & SpatialSource.com.au, Mell spoke about BYDA’s capacity to become the digital twin for Australia’s utility infrastructure network. Highlighting the need to work with government to provide appropriate regulatory reform to enable digital innovation in the sector. Find out more about BYDA’s big plans and mission in Mell’s interview with SpatialSource.com.au. #assetprotection #damageprevention #safedigging #safetyfirst #utilities #BYDA #collaboration #makingadifference #impact
