World Green Building Week 2016


World Green Building Week is the flagship event of the global green building movement – organised
by the World Green Building Council and led by its network of 74 Green Building Councils and their
27,000 member companies. The week raises awareness of green buildings around the world,
highlighting how they are the most effective means to achieving a range of environmental, social and
economic goals, from addressing climate change to creating sustainable homes, businesses and
communities –better places for people to live, work and play.
The week, which this year takes place from September 26 to October 2, is an opportunity for Green
Building Councils, their members and major global leaders around the world to showcase on the
global stage how their actions and leadership are helping to deliver green buildings in their own
countries, and to celebrate the positive outcomes they lead to.
