HAS Green Academy: Integrated consideration for a healthy living environment
Municipalities are facing major challenges: 900,000 homes need to be built, while area development is time-consuming due to complex processes and legal procedures, and extreme weather, nature, health and liveability must be taken into account. The question is whether this can be done faster without sacrificing quality. Digitisation, data-driven work and Digital Twins offer a solution by bringing together all the starting points of an area in one digital model, where designs can be entered, tested and calculated directly.
Training Details
Duration: The course consists of 2 days of lessons. These take place on the following days at the Province of Utrecht or at a municipality in Utrecht:
Language: Dutch
Participants: There are 3 groups in total, with a maximum of 12 participants per group.
