Abstract
Philippe Clergeau will present the concept of regenerative urbanism, after recalling the definitions of biodiversity and ecosystems, which are essential to a liveable, sustainable city. Nature-based solutions already permeate architecture, but we can also draw inspiration from the way ecosystems function, both to recreate them in the city and to turn the city into a vast ecosystem in which both human and non-human living things are taken into account. This bioinspiration would be a guarantee of sustainability and resilience for the city. Current research on these subjects at building or neighborhood level will be reported shortly.
