What is BiodiverCity?
The BiodiverCity label assess and rates the ecological performance of new construction and heavy refurbishment projects. Combining both organic features and construction, it promotes the design, construction and even the use of forward-thinking building systems that prioritize the place of nature in the real estate projects.
Why obtain a BiodiverCity label?
The BiodiverCity label adds value to your asset and complements international certifications (such as BREEAM and LEED) that consider but do not provide an in-depth analysis of biodiversity features. The label concerns all urban development and refurbishment projects on an urban, suburban, or natural site. It is of particular relevance when a building includes both users and significant outdoor spaces.
How can Longevity Partners help you?
A Longevity Partners BiodiverCity assessor can assist you from early conception stages to help you obtain a BiodiverCity label.
To assess performance of urban projects in relation to biodiversity, BiodiverCity relies on a multi-criteria approach. A number of key success factors have been identified that take into account the multiple aspects of a construction operation.
The assessment is conducted based on 4 axes, subdivided into 26 issues and 63 objectives to aim for through specific actions.
These four elements are as follows:
- Commitment: Adopting a biodiversity strategic plan tailored to the construction project.
- Available Resources: Designing an ecological architecture.
- Evaluate potential advantages: Optimizing the ecological output of the project in terms of the quality and diversity of its ecological habitats.
- Benefits for users: Highlighting expected benefits for users’ wellbeing.
