OVERVIEW
It is becoming increasingly obvious that while technological and digital progress are essential for the built environment’s energy transition, the occupants’ role and well-being as well as long-term circular planning need to take on a greater role both in academic and applied projects for maximum impact and sustainability. As a catalyst for interdisciplinary exchange, the international scientific conference CISBAT 2023 will link these areas and encourage lively, forward looking debates.
The hybrid event organised from 13 to 15 September 2023 at EPFL in Lausanne and Smart Living Lab in Fribourg, Switzerland, offers an interdisciplinary platform for dialogue, presentations and networking.
Over three days, CISBAT will feature high-level keynotes, thematic sessions, workshops and technical visits. The core of the conference will take place on the EPFL Campus in Lausanne over Days 1 & 2. On Day 3, CISBAT will be hosted by Smart Living Lab in Fribourg for a highly topical program of workshops and visits. An evening event will allow networking among participants who attend in person. To allow active remote attendance and networking, CISBAT will use a professional hybrid conference platform.
The call for papers is now open for contributions within the following topic groups, across the focus areas People, Digitalization and Technology:
OPERATION - energy management, efficiency, control WELL-BEING - comfort, health, indoor environment CIRCULARITY - materials, embodied energy, construction
