NO In order to enhance the national relevance and policy uptake of its global analysis, the IRP has endeavoured to contextualise the key results and messages of the global RECC report for the construction sector in Argentina. The findings of these Technical Guidelines for Ar gentina’s residential building sector have been both informed and validated by consulting with local stake holders from the public and private sector, civil society and academia, and by engaging regional experts. The results of the IRP modelling work demonstrate that implementing a range of material efficiency strategies – without requiring development of new technologies – would by 2060 lead to a 45% reduction in material demand and a 47% reduction of GHG-emissions re lating to residential building construction in Argentina. The national assessment serves to highlight the mate rial efficiency strategies with the largest GHG emission reduction potential.
