As part of Climate Week North East, we were joined by Magdalena Blazusiak for a talk about her research into the connections between retrofit - making improvements to the sustainability and energy efficiency of existing buildings - and health and wellbeing. Magdalena is a Chartered Architectural Technologist, and works with Scottish Ecological Design Association (SEDA) and North East Scotland Retrofit Hub (NESFIT). She lives near Cairnie, and is currently doing a PhD at Robert Gordon University. She's passionate about exploring the relationships between buildings and people, and working on creating resilient, supportive places for thriving communities.Lunch: minestrone soup, wild garlic focaccia, coconut macaroons
