Be the catalyst for change
The organisers of FutureBuild 2020 are looking to inspire architects to join fellow industry leaders and innovators at this year’s event to be the “catalyst for change” that’s needed to help deliver a more sustainable built environment

Sessions for architects in the Conference Arena will include ‘Professional Collaboration: Do it together,’ developed in partnership with the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT). This session, on day three (5 March), will look to bring the presidents of the institute together to discuss how those working in the built and natural environments are currently responding to the climate and ecological emergency, and will report on “ongoing plans to continually evolve ways of working for the future.”
On the second day of the conference (4 March), candidate for London Mayor Rory Stewart will join a panel for the ‘Carbon neutral cities for the future’ session. They will discuss the actions that cities across the UK and abroad are taking to ensure a “liveable future for all,” from improving mobility to urban greening to combatting air pollution.
