New Working Group on Urban regeneration and carbon footprint of demolition
6/02/2025

EDA is preparing a new working group: Working Group on Urban regeneration and carbon footprint of demolition. The purpose of this group is to explain that demolition is the mechanism that enables urban regeneration and reduces the carbon footprint, which will help change the public’s perception of demolition as a useful and essential activity.
Coordinated by Ms Anaïs Terbeche from SEDDRe , the group will start on Thursday 20 February and will have a total of 4 online meetings, from February to May 2025.
The meetings will result in the publication of a guide on ‘Urban regeneration and carbon footprint of demolition’ to explain that demolition is the mechanism that enables urban regeneration and reduces the carbon footprint. This will help change the public’s perception of demolition as a useful and essential activity and demonstrate that demolition is essential to urban regeneration and to achieve the objectives of a circular economy.
EDA Working Groups aim to provide a structured way of developing the organisation’s objectives, encouraging the exchange of best practices, developing reference documentation, creating dissemination or training materials and promoting the guild in general.
