ENG. ALAA EL-BEHEIRY TALKING ABOUT KCSD COURSES…

What are the KCSD courses And how do they affect the future
engineers?
KCSD stands for The Knowledge Center forSustainable Design. In 2016,
we were keen on nurturing our interest in sustainabilityand green
architecture, so I made a visit toOslo , Norway, to meet entities that are
interested in supporting this field, includingthe world-renowned design
servicescompany , Snohetta , which is mainlyacknowledged for designing
Bibliotheca Alexandrina. When we came back to Egypt, we launched
KCSD. The center is mainly offering consultancy services forsustainability
measures in projects design,construction, and operation; as well as courses
on sustainable design.
As for the effect of these courses, you can imagine, we need Egypt to be a
better place and having engineers who are aware of the importance of
designing healthy sustainable homes is very important. It’s the engineers’
responsibility to make this change.
