Global trends and climate finance is increasingly focused on supporting the decarbonisation agenda as a vehicle to truly achieve compliance with the Paris Agreement. In this regard, it is necessary to develop national roadmaps that define how the building sector will make the transition to net zero.
The Zero Carbon and Climate Resilience Framework, originally developed in our Asia Pacific region, consists of five pillars – Government, Technical Solutions, Data, Finance and Mindset. This creates a holistic picture of a market’s readiness towards net zero, identifying the existing opportunities and the gaps that need to be a focus for the coming years.
The Americas Regional Network is leading work to adapt the framework for the LatAm market so that GBCs can then use the framework to create their own national roadmap for decarbonisation.
You can view the Asia Pacific Zero Carbon and Climate Resilience Framework here. If you are interested in being involved in adapting the Framework to our LatAm region please contact our Americas Programmes Head, Laura Chapa lchapa@worldgbc.org.
Through the leadership of Green Building Councils in Colombia and Chile, these two countries already have national decarbonisation roadmaps.
