Biodiversity And The Built Environment: Irish Case Studies

These case studies from Ireland showcase how biodiversity and nature-based solutions have been integrated into various building types and infrastructure projects. They aim to inspire building and construction professionals to protect biodiversity and incorporate nature-led features into their projects. They offer insights from the challenges and lessons learned by others from real-world projects.

The case studies are not designed to provide technical guidance for any specific category of building professional. They were developed to create a common understanding across the industry of how biodiversity can be protected and enhanced in our built environment, and of the benefits of doing so. The case studies should not replace professional advice. It is best practice to have a suitably trained ecologist involved in all projects from an early stage.

The case studies are part of a collection of ten that will be released later this year. The initiative is supported by Construct Innovate and the Land Development Agency as part of the 2023 Seed Fund Project.
