Sustainable living

Sustainable living is high on the cabinet’s agenda. From 2020 all houses and offices must be delivered as energy-neutral, and problem neighborhoods must be transformed into desirable areas. From June 25 to 28, scientists, housing policy makers and policy executives discussed how housing construction and the built environment can become more sustainable. They gathered at a conference organized by the Delft Centre for Sustainable Urban Areas of TU Delft and the European Network for Housing Research (ENHR). The theme of the annual ENHR conference was ‘Sustainable Urban Areas’. Alongside the issue of sustainable building, this theme also encompasses the social, economic, spatial and environmental quality of the built environment. Plenary speakers included renowned housing experts and scientists from the Netherlands and abroad, such as Professor Hugo Priemus of TU Delft, Frank van Dam of the The Netherlands Institute for Spatial Research (RPB) and Christine Lefévrier of the Urban Institute of Paris. Topics covered during the conference included: homelessness and housing exclusion, home maintenance, the sustainable city, urbanization of the landscape and the use of geo-information.

These fellowships will enable them to further their individual studies at TU Delft and gain skills that will benefit and contribute to capacity building in the students’ home countries upon their return. The fellowships were awarded for the academic years 2007-2008 and 2008-2009. These generous awards will enable the recipients to pursue Master studies at TU Delft. The fellowships are funded by both the Dutch Ministry for Foreign Affairs and the Delft University of Technology, in honor of the University’s 165th jubilee. The Dutch Government exemplifies the conviction that sustainable energy is imperative for achieving sustainable development and poverty alleviation. Energy is crucial for developing countries, both for their economic growth and for the social and environmental consequences. The Netherlands finds such action to be essential for achieving the Millennium Development Goals. Capacity building is an important element in this action plan and the Delft University of Technology/Netherlands Fellowship Program . ‘Access to Energy in Sub-Saharan Africa’ fellowships will contribute to realizing this goal.
