WORKSHOP 3
Design Charrette Themes

" Sustainable Design and Practice - Enhancing Sustainability"


Sponsors

The “Design Charrette” process used during the Workshop revolved around 7 main themes: water, Waste, Energy, Transport, Community & Culture, Biodiversity, and amenities.

Participants were divided into small groups and added their inputs on these different themes: they started with one theme and then moved to the next table to comment on the already existing comments from the previous group, etc. until they reached their original theme. This was an original and creative way of discussing and exchanging on how to reduce the environmental impact of ecotourism facilities.
