Sustainable Places 2026, organised by R2M Solution and the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology, will take place from 2 to 4 December at the European Convention Center Luxembourg (ECCL) in Luxembourg, Belgium, with both on-site and online participation.
This year, the 13th edition of Sustainable Places will address several areas closely connected to the work of HERIT4AGES, including sustainable renovation, circularity and the use of digital technologies in the built environment.
The full list of this year’s themes includes:
Energy communities, smart cities & urban transition
Sustainable construction & renovation
Climate change mitigation & adaptation
Facilitating the energy transition: policy, finance, training
Sustainable urban renewal & cultural transformation
Renewable energy technologies
Decarbonisation & circularity
Resilience & energy security
Data centres, digital twins & artificial intelligence for sustainability
HERIT4AGES will contribute to these wider discussions through a joint parallel session: “What Worked on Site? Practical Lessons from Europe’s Deep-Renovation Demonstrators”. Project partner Ana Magdalena Molina from Foundation Santa María la Real will join moderator Luise Anne Sanders, representing SIRCULAR, Paraskevi Dimitriadou (REHOUSE), Annika Urbas (oPEN LAB) and Łukasz Wilczyński (DigiFab) to discuss how innovative solutions are implemented in real buildings, the challenges encountered along the way and the lessons that can support their wider application.
Whether you join us in person or online, we would be delighted to have you with us. You can register below, and we hope to see you at the conference.
