    Focus topics: SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE

    This is the 11th issue of our Magazine with the topic of “Sustainable Architecture”. Architecture is a discipline that through its practice has a profound impact on all fields of sustainability, which means that during its existence, an object affects local and global environment by various related activities and processes even before it is actually constructed. You can read more about the influence of architecture on the environment in the introductory text of a young architect and our external associate Petar Veselinovic.

    According to Environmental Management Index (EPI) for 2018, Denmark occupies the third place, which is why we decided to find out from the Danish Ambassador in Serbia Mr. Anders Christian Hougård what measures Denmark took in order to be so highly ranked, but also which projects the Danish Embassy has implemented in Serbia so far and in which areas we could still cooperate in order to ensure a higher rate of economic growth in our country.

    In the Section People and Challenges, you will find an interesting article about the company “UrbiGO”, founded by young experts who were eager to find a garden solution for a new generation that grows up in the concrete jungle and in increasingly polluted environment.
