Our founder Dr. Melissa Sterry has teamed-up with Learn Formula - the world’s leading professional development platform - to deliver a webinar on building ecologically-inspired architectural resilience to wildfire.
CPD accredited with associations including Architects Registration Board, Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists, Royal Institute of British Architects, and Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland, the session will explore why wildfire resilience must become a core design consideration rather than simply a compliance exercise.
During the session Dr. Sterry will explain how changing climate conditions and development patterns are increasing wildfire risk, and how architects, planners, and designers can respond through integrated, systems-based approaches. Participants will gain insights into bio-inspired design, planning, material selection,and community-scale resilience to create safer, more adaptable, and ecologically symbiotic and environmentally responsive built environments.
