In a second keynote, Marie-Claude and Marie-France are joined by White’s collaboration partner Mr. William Gagnon of Ecology North. Together they will reveal the details of The Northern Centre for Sustainability, a pilot project in Yellowknife, which will be the first climate and energy positive project in Canada. It also aims for full Living Building Challenge Certification, which is the most stringent building certification in the world. The project will be made possible by the collaboration of Ecology North, the Yellowknives Dene First Nation, local architects and White’s unique combination of practice-based research, international collaboration, and traditional and scientific knowledge in a community-based approach.
