The Membership Engagement Working Group organized and presented its largest yearly event, the Regenerative Metropolis symposium on September 27th 2024, the Friday of Climate Week in NYC. With over 400 registrants, we enjoyed the energy and collaboration of a full room for the length of the day, as we learned from speakers representing a range of perspectives on moving towards regenerative architecture. This year’s theme “Aligning with Biogenic Systems” focused on combining Passive House technology with best practices in material carbon storage, with special focus on the sourcing of biobased materials from regenerative agriculture and climate smart wood.
