Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme: Wooden Buildings and Circular Construction

Between 23 and 27 November 2026, the InnoRenew CoE premises of the University of Primorska in Izola will host the Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) titled Wooden Buildings and Circular Construction. Hosted by UP FAMNIT/UP IAM, the programme is organized in collaboration with partner institutions Thomas More (Belgium), Novia University of Applied Sciences (Finland), and Technische Hochschule Rosenheim (Germany).

Erasmus+ BIP Wooden Buildings and Circular Construction is worth 3 ECTS credits and also includes two online sessions (on 9 and 16 November 2026). It addresses sustainable and circular approaches to the design, construction, and use of wooden buildings, focusing on how appropriate design strategies can extend the lifespan of modern timber buildings and their components. Participants will learn about the principles of adaptable design, strategies for deconstruction, reuse, and recycling of building elements, as well as material selection that contributes to a more sustainable built environment and more efficient use of resources.
