Jao Tsung-I Academy | [Green Retrofitting for Hong Kong’s Heritage Buildings: Technical Approaches and Funding Strategies] Symposium

Description

As Hong Kong advances towards the Climate Action Plan 2050, transforming our built environment is a strategic imperative. Heritage sites, however, often faces different constraints imposed by the historic fabric itself, making retrofitting difficult. In view of this, the Hong Kong Built Heritage Alliance (HKBHA) is organising a symposium connecting heritage experts and operators, green retrofitting specialists, and green finance professionals to showcase solutions and existing funding pathways, creating synergies between the heritage and green finance sectors to drive Hong Kong’s heritage toward carbon neutrality. The symposium welcomes registrations from industry professionals and the general public. We invite you to register and join us in exploring this field further.
