Operationalisation of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals in absolute sustainability assessments of the building industry in Denmark
This Ph.D. considers absolute sustainability. It aims at answering when a building is good enough both considering social- and environmental sustainability across the life cycle. By translating the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into a Danish building context, and creating a design tool with sub-goals, indicators and targets, it operationalizes the social aspects of sustainability while acknowledging the planetary limits.
