Following the success of our first two editions, Coliving Insights proudly released its third publication, Impact & Sustainability in Coliving, exploring the critical themes shaping the future of shared living.
This edition dives into how coliving operators, investors, and thought leaders integrate impact and sustainability principles into their developments, policies, and communities. Structured into five key chapters—Social Value in Coliving, Policy & Investments, Wellbeing & Sustainability, Social & Economic Impact, and Technology & Innovation—this publication highlights innovative approaches and measurable frameworks to drive positive change within the real estate sector.
The cover story, Social Value in Coliving, unpacks emerging concepts like biodiversity net gain, biophilic design, and nature-based solutions while emphasizing coliving's potential to deliver high-impact results for people and the planet.
Additional highlights include:
- Insights into impact investing, new ownership models like crowdfunding, and real estate benchmarks for wellbeing and sustainability.
- Articles on hybrid home-office models, rural reactivation through impact-driven coliving, and innovative tools for community-led energy-saving behaviors.
