After the first Building Culture Report 2006, which comprehensively represented the built environment situation in Austria, the second report focuses on three particularly relevant topics “sustainability”, “people orientation” and “competence in education”. Thus it also deals with the three major current crises – the energy crisis, the financial crisis and the crisis of education. The contribution of building culture to the central challenges of the present is discussed. On the occasion oft he public presentation of the Austrian Building Culture Report a conversation between leaders will explore the possibilities of political action.
