RMIT’s new Post-Carbon Research Centre will tackle the complex challenges of decarbonising the built environment and infrastructures to transition to a sustainable, equitable and resilient future.
A joint initiative of the University’s College of Design and Social Context and STEM College, the Centre brings together multi-disciplinary research capabilities across the built environment and infrastructure sectors, together with expertise from design, architecture, planning, engineering, construction, computer and geospatial science, and the social sciences.
The Centre’s official launch event ‘Creating Australian Built Environments for the Post-Fossil Fuel Era’ featured a keynote address by Alison Scotland, CEO of the Australian Sustainable Built Environment Council, on the role of research and collaboration for positive change.
