FuturHist - Launch of the Knowledge HUB

Background

The Knowledge HUB, developed by ICOMOS (as part of the EU-funded project FuturHist aimed at creating replicable retrofit solutions for the historic buildings of the future), is a digital repository designed to share resources on both existing and newly developed energy retrofit solutions that are compatible with the conservation of historic structures.

The Knowledge HUB brings together resources on energy retrofit solutions compatible with the conservation of historic buildings. It provides access to literature, legislation, best practices, tools, and capacity-building materials.

This webinar introduces the platform and its content and demonstrates how it can support the work of heritage professionals and relevant stakeholders.
