ISG’s head of sustainability on creating positive change in the built environment
Category: Social Responsibility (Charity/ Volunteering/Environmentalism)
ISG’s head of sustainability, Anna Foden, recently took part in a UN Global Compact webinar series focusing on the built environment, and specifically how the sector accelerates its journey to circular economy principles.
Anna Foden, Head of Sustainability, ISG
Alongside panellists from RICS, British Land and Arup, Anna told the global webinar audience, which surpassed 1,600 people, that “This is the time for revolutionary change in the built environment. We're creating a re-use network by joining up our projects to ensure materials are retained at their highest levels and then re-deployed.”
Anna’s insight that engaging the supply chain is key to unlocking the true potential of the circular economy was echoed by fellow panellists during the wide-ranging discussion. On the subject of material passports, Anna was clear that these “de-risk material re-use - which is so important in validating materials for use in their primary form.”
A point confirmed by other panellists was the importance of building in time within programmes to maximise the impact of circularity – “At The Entopia Building for CISL, we had the time and space to implement a re-use strategy that delivered genuine cost savings and delivered to client expectations on a world-leading deep office retrofit.”
