PROBONO

2022-2027

Building green and sustainable neighbourhoods by using the power of social engagement and technology.

As society becomes increasingly urban and ever-dependent on technological innovations, it is vital to ensure that people and the planet are put at the very heart of this development in a way that is sensitive to and encourages the protection, expansion or re-introduction of sustainable space amongst the urban sprawl. This is the aim of the Probono project.

Probono has an initial focus on renovating existing urban buildings and locations in a resource and energy-efficient way. Applying technology, business and socio-economic innovations to stimulate a transition to nett-zero and energy-positive buildings, leading to a better understanding of how these sustainable renovations can be a catalyst to create a wider, more sustainable Green Building Neighbourhood and thus, thriving and sustainable community.
