The future is here. By responding intelligently to climate change and energy security we are improving quality of life in our cities and towns.
This day of training highlights priorities for change, demonstrates innovations and introduces practical tools for building sustainable cities and towns.
The good news is that we have a wealth of expertise to transition to more sustainable cities and towns.
Innovations you’ll learn about include The Natural Step, The Merton Rule, The Fingal Directive and Imagineering - Futures Thinking Toolkit.
This event is for planners, city development boards, city councilors, civil servants, architects, design professionals, property developers, Agenda 21 officers, civil society organisations and concerned citizens.
CPD credits available through IPI. Innovations taught:
The Natural Step provides a clear, compelling, science-based definition of sustainability and a practical strategic planning framework to help communities and organisations make smart economic decisions to move them step-by-step towards a successful and sustainable future.
The ‘Merton Rule’ is the groundbreaking planning policy pioneered by the London Borough of Merton that requires the use of renewable energy onsite to reduce annual carbon dioxide emissions in the built environment. Hundreds of local authorities look set to follow Merton’s lead, which will impact all new major development projects throughout the UK.
The Fingal Directive: In response to the EU’s Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, Fingal County Council now requires that new buildings must draw 30 percent of their space and water heating from renewable energy, and consume no more than 50 kilowatt hours per metre squared per annum for water and space heating. Dún Laoghaire / Rathdown County Council has now followed suit.
Imagineering - Futures Thinking Toolkit: Futures, prospective, foresight, scenario planning and urban visioning can successfully be used in promoting urban planning processes. The Toolkit can foster the sustainable development of prosperous cities and towns in a manner that favours a more holistic, inclusive, integrative and creative approach.
Presentations include:
The Fingal Directive
Cllr David Healy, Fingal County Council, involved in introducing strong energy efficiency and renewable energy standards in new housing developments in Fingal
Cllr Ciaran Fallon, Green Party Councillor, responsible for the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council energy efficiency in housing proposal

Dick Gleeson, Dublin City Planner
The Natural Step
John Harrington, Founder of RealEyes, uses The Natural Step in his work with Dublin City Council and businesses

Jump To Comment: 1with all due respect for the work cultivate does the only people who can pay 175 euro for a one day conference are people who are being paid to go to it. if you want input from others you would have to operate a sliding scale of payment, let people pay by donation or do work trade instead of paying. if those are currently options then please include them in announcements. thanks, liz.
