Research and Development
We develop technical studies and industry analyses that generate qualified information and serve as reference materials.
A Temporary Technical Committee (TTC) is formed whenever there is a need for further research and development in a specific subject in the environmental area, be it related to LIFE Methodology or other environmental demands from society.
Learn about the committees that have been established by clicking here.
