The keynote explores why evaluation is the foundation of sustainable structures, where concrete action can be taken, and which guiding questions are essential. Participants will also gain insights into practical approaches and tools, including a newly developed chatbot.

The session takes place as part of m4music, is free of charge, and will be held in English.
