Dr Nicola Willand is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Property, Construction and Project Management, and a housing researcher who is interested in the interplay of housing, energy, health and equity.
As an architect by background, Nicola Willand approaches sustainability in the built environment holistically.
She finds that initiatives towards a more sustainable built environment tend to focus on environmental and economic outcomes, while the social aspects are often neglected.
To facilitate triple bottom line sustainability, Nicola aims to develop strategies for the built environment that will minimise environmental impacts and life cycle costs while maximising productivity, health and social equity.
