Resilience and sustainability for educational buildings

The COVID pandemic emphasized the prominent role of accessibility to educational infrastructures in societal performance. This identifies educational buildings as a main target of resilience studies. In turn, the word “sustainability” summarizes a societal need gathering momentum in the last few years. It is becoming the focus of several governmental programs. The two concepts, resilience and sustainability, are first introduced, as a result of their evolution, in a technical context.

The goal is to emphasize, among the several aspects one has to consider, those that predominate in the design of educational infrastructures. © 2022 The Author(s)
