At the formal session, our partner Hervé de Gaudemar opened two fascinating days of discussions on sustainable urban planning and environmental challenges with a well-received speech.
“A realistic, committed, and pragmatic conference,” he noted in particular, highlighting the role of the law in addressing environmental issues and the value of a project-based approach.
“A lively conference!” he might have added, given the quality and vibrancy of the debates that engaged notaries, academics, real estate professionals, and prominent figures on the 12 proposals presented by three committees: “Anticipate,” “Convince,” and “Achieve.”
These bold and ingenious proposals should help set us on the necessary path toward sustainable urban planning.
Last but not least… a shared ambition was also presented before the conference concluded in Professor Elise Carpentier’s summary report: the development of a code for sustainable urban planning.
This innovative text would not be a merger of the environmental, urban planning, and construction and housing codes, but rather a reorganization of these codes and a rewriting shaped by the concept of sustainable urban planning.
A big thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this event a success!
