Abstract
The development of complex decision making processes has encouraged the involvement of different stakeholders in the evaluation procedures and tools. Multi-criteria evaluations are increasingly being used in deliberative evaluation processes, addressing research experiences and applications towards this new challenge: to give broader and stronger meaning and consistency to the outcomes of decision making processes. It means to open the decisional arena to different groups with different points of view and involve multiple weights in the multicriteria evaluation framework. According to these general assumptions, the paper gives a critical review of assessment methods and tools developed in the field of the performance assessment of buildings sustainability, starting from the procedures set by the Green Building Challenge (Gbc), with the purpose of 1) pointing out strenghts and weaknesses of the Gbc evaluation model and 2) understanding the opportunities to adapt their evaluation framework to the principles of the deliberative multicreteria appraisal.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
