Prof. Dusan Licina was a guest speaker in a live Indoor Environment Show along with Prof. Ulla Haverinen-Shaughnessy

Prof. Licina was a guest of the new video show & podcast called “Indoor Environments: Global Research to Action” that explores how research can be translated to practice on a variety of topics related to our built indoor environments. The International Society of Indoor Air Quality and Climate (ISIAQ) and the Indoor Environmental Quality Global Alliance (IEQ-GA) have partnered with Healthy Indoors® /IAQNET LLC to create this unique show.

During the show, key questions explored included:

  • How to energy policies for building retrofits and new construction impact indoor environments?
  • Are energy and IEQ indeed in conflict or not?
  • What are the strategies we can think of to jointly tackle both energy and indoor air quality/thermal comfort?
  • What is the role of current green labelling schemes?
