    This presentation addresses the urgent need for architects to adopt transformative practices in response to the global environmental crisis. Through the case study of Peccioli, Italy, attendees will learn how innovative urban regeneration, centered on sustainable waste management and community engagement, can revitalize communities and achieve measurable environmental and social benefits. The program highlights Peccioli's recognition at the Venice Biennale 2021 and its role as a model for applying the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Attendees will gain insights from award-winning projects and learn how to integrate these strategies into their own work, fostering resilient and sustainable communities.

    Speaker: Alessandro Melis, PhD, AIA, Founding Director, Heliopolis 21
