Goal 8 Decent Work and Economic Growth
BAMB supports the Sustainable Development Goals
While working towards a systemic shift and moving the construction industry into a circular economy, BAMB is promoting higher productivity through innovation, resource efficiency and decoupling growth from environmental degradation. Circular business models developed within BAMB will look into ways to create added value for each stakeholder and the identification of current bottlenecks within the new value chain.
A circular economy based on re-use, repair and re-manufacturing is also considered to create more jobs than new production. . In addition, reversible design tools and Materials Passports could significantly improve the working conditions and safety of workers involved in building demolition by providing product information and facilitating easy dismantling.
