Don’t Waste Buildings (Australia) is a collective of architects, engineers, planners, researchers, developers, policymakers, and advocates working together to reduce embodied carbon by championing the reuse, repair, and regeneration of existing buildings. This is a non-partisan initiative with a national focus. We believe that old buildings are not waste—they are untapped social, economic, and environmental assets.

Join us to launch this initiative with speakers and discussions from great minds advocating for Building Re-use in Australia.

We will hear from Marcus Jankie Managing Director and Partner at UP Property about their award winning Morris Moor Adaptive Re-use Project

We will have refreshments courtesy of our sponsor TTW and all of our ticket booking fees will go towards HoMie - the Melbourne-based streetwear label and social enterprise.
whose profits go towards achieving its mission: to support young people affected by homelessness or hardship.
