This Strategic Research Agenda marks the beginning of a process that aims to significantly increase the level of strategic, collaborative research being undertaken in the built environment sector.
In early 2006, the National Platform undertook a poll of members and colleagues and identified their rankings of broad topic areas from the European Strategic Research Agenda (SRA). This poll identified three key areas as high priority for the UK, namely:
Accordingly these three topics became the basis of the most recent UK SRA Questionnaire with each topic being broken down into sub-topics, largely based on those identified in the European Strategic Research Agenda.
Since its launch in 2006, Working Groups have been developing the priority areas to identify detailed research programmes to be undertaken in each priority area. Scoping studies are being undertaken, funded by a number of founding members of the National Platform.
