Thematic session - Data and whole life cycle 

This event will address the need for consistent and robust data to inform a whole life cycle view on buildings made available to decision makers from all relevant sectors. While data is seen as a key factor by almost all stakeholders involved in decarbonizing the built environment, it is interpreted and understood differently by different sectors and people. Data availability, quality, and accessibility are often limited and uneven across countries and regions. Data needs to be standardized to allow for comparability and interoperability between technologies. The event will provide a overview of data in the built environment, through a keynote speech, followed by a panel discussion. After the panel the session will launch the 10 actions and the CAPSA building passport from the GlobalABC Data Hub
