Competences for Reuse in Construction and Programme Secretariat

This work package entails the project 'Competences for Reuse in Construction', which seeks to strengthen students' hands-on competences to reuse construction materials at vocational educations across the Nordics.

The Secretariat is also responsible for the overall external and internal communication of the knowledge created in the programme and establishing partnerships with key stakeholders in the Nordic construction industry and beyond.

The work package is lead by Helle Redder Momsen from the Danish Authority of Social Services and Housing.

Competences for Reuse in Construction

This work package is developing teaching materials for vocational institutions across the Nordic countries to strengthen students' hands-on competences to reuse construction materials.

 

Background

A recent mapping has shown a clear lack of educational materials to reuse construction materials.

The work package has also published a report on policies enabling the reuse of construction materials in the Nordic countries

Skills4Reuse

The result is the brand new educational material Skills4Reuse that gives practical skills for building with reused construction materials as well as general knowledge of sustainability.

The material is free and available in all Nordic languages and English.
