Moisture in buildings is a field of study with direct, tangible and wide-ranging implications on many areas including climate change mitigation/adaptation, built environment decarbonisation, and health and wellbeing. With the aim of bringing together and consolidating the unusually interdisciplinary research community around this topic, the ICMB23 was held on the  3rd and 4th July 2023 as the second event of a biannual conference series organised by the UK Centre for Moisture in Buildings (UKCMB): https://ukcmb.org.
