World Green Building Week 2024
9 – 13 Sept 2024
World Green Building Week (WGBW) is the world’s largest campaign to accelerate sustainable built environments across the globe.
Organised by World Green Building Council (WorldGBC), it is led by our global network of over 75 Green Building Councils and their 46 000 members.
Reduce. Decarbonise. Adapt.
This year’s theme of #BuildingTheTransition calls on the building and construction sector to accelerate the transition to secure an energy efficient, regenerative and just future for all.
