SUMMARY:GBCSA Green Building Convention 2025
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the 18th Green Building Convention\, where the future of sustainable development takes centre stage. Taking place from 11 – 13 November 2025 at the vibrant Century City Conference Centre in Cape Town\, this year’s theme\, Stepping Up to Next is a bold call to action for our industry to redefine progress and innovation. \n\n\n\nThe built environment accounts for nearly 40% of global carbon emissions\, making it one of the most significant contributors to climate change. This statistic underscores the urgent need to transform how we design\, construct\, and operate buildings to secure a sustainable future for generations to come. \n\n\n\nChallenging us to raise the bar\, push boundaries\, and embrace a future that demands more sustainable\, efficient\, and resilient built environments. It’s about setting new benchmarks\, integrating cutting-edge technologies\, and pioneering designs that tackle the pressing environmental challenges of today. \n\n\n\nThis convention is your platform to connect with thought leaders\, explore emerging trends\, and position yourself as a trailblazer in the sustainability space. Together\, we will shape the next chapter of green building and pave the way for an industry that leads with purpose and impact.

SUMMARY:UKGBC: UK Climate Resilience Roadmap Launch
DESCRIPTION:Be part of this landmark event from wherever you are by joining the live stream of the Climate Resilience Roadmap official launch\, which will be freely accessible. Built environment professionals\, policymakers\, and climate leaders across the country\, and around the world\, are invited to be part of this pivotal milestone. \n\n\n\nClimate resilience is no longer optional—it’s imperative. Safeguarding people and the natural environment must be our top priority\, and the built environment sector is at the forefront of this mission. From designing climate-resilient homes\, offices\, schools\, and healthcare facilities to retrofitting existing assets\, our industry must lead the charge in creating safe\, adaptable communities that can withstand the uncertainties of our changing climate\, anywhere UKGBC’s UK Climate Resilience Roadmap sets out a bold and practical framework for how the sector can respond to the key climate hazards\, plan and build long-term resilience\, while ensuring a just and climate-safe future for all. Developed in collaboration with a wide range of stakeholders across industry\, the Roadmap provides a shared vision\, clear actions\, and policy recommendations to drive systemic change.

SUMMARY:Sustainability Summit 2025
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability Summit 2025 – Building Sustainability Together\, 18.3.2025 Helsinki \n\n\n\nThe Sustainability Summit 2025 event brings together experts from the real estate and construction sectors for a joint forum on responsibility and sustainable development. At the event\, we will delve into the themes of responsibility in the light of solutions and consider how climate work done in Finland is positioned in relation to the other Nordic countries. \n\n\n\nThe themes of responsibility and sustainable development have become increasingly close to everyday work\, and expanding reporting requirements and the regulation guiding operations place their own demands on companies’ operations. The requirements of our operating environment around the theme are becoming tougher\, and innovations and proven operating models set an example for other actors. When creating an increasingly sustainable business\, we must act as a common front\, sharing knowledge and skills. \n\n\n\nIn the program of the Sustainability Summit event\, we highlight concrete solutions from the perspectives of different actors in the KiRa industry and aim to talk directly. As the main organisers\, Kiinko and Green Building Council Finland want to create a discussion platform for the themes of responsibility and sustainable development\, and together with our partners\, we invite experts in the KiRa field to hear the latest steps taken in the field.

SUMMARY:Africa Green Building Summit & Future Cities Conference
DESCRIPTION:This second edition of the Future Cities Summit is poised to significantly advance the conversation on sustainable urban development in Nigeria\, and the wider Africa. The Summit theme\, “Building Resilient Futures: Integrating Carbon Neutrality\, Circular Economy & Inclusive Urban Development\,” is inspired by the World GBC’s Global Policy Principles for a Sustainable Built Environment\, and its Building the Transition campaign. Both these initiatives draw on and extend the vision set forth in the earlier Africa Manifesto for Sustainable Cities and the Built Environment\, embodying the Manifesto’s call for “…a net zero carbon\, healthy\, equitable\, resilient\, environmentally-sustainable and economically-inclusive built environment for every African\, everywhere.” \n\n\n\nThis year’s Summit\, co-located with World GBC Africa Regional Network’s Africa Green Building Summit\, will explore the truth that Africa’s rapid urban transformation represents both challenge and opportunity. The challenge of overcoming barriers from resource limitations\, governance limitations and socioeconomic constraints. Balanced by the opportunity to define a uniquely African urban paradigm\, leveraging on the immense potential of Africa’s youthful and entrepreneurial population\, and its dynamic and rapidly growing cities. Over four days\, the Summit will dive deep into what these challenges and opportunities mean for the continent\, aiming to craft relevant policy responses\, innovative strategies\, and collaborative approaches to address the evolving needs of Africa’s rapidly changing urban landscapes. \n\n\n\nThe Summit will feature keynote addresses from distinguished speakers\, sharing visions of Africa’s urban futures and setting the stage for a series of expert-led plenary sessions. These plenary sessions will examine various facets of sustainable urban development\, with an emphasis on carbon neutrality\, resource circularity\, and inclusive urban development. The Summit will also feature interactive breakout sessions\, designed to stimulate in-depth dialogue on localizing the policy formulations encapsulated in the World GBC’s Africa Manifesto and its Global Policy Principles. As a gathering point for green building stakeholders and experts\, both locally and internationally\, the Summit will also feature exhibitions\, product expos and awards\, showcasing the latest innovations in green building practices\, sustainable products\, and services. \n\n\n\nThe Future Cities Summit – Africa Green Building Summit 2024 is more than a conference. It’s the crucible where Africa’s urban future is forged and refined. It’s where the collective wisdom of the past meets the innovative spirit of the present to conceptualise a sustainable\, resilient\, and inclusive future for the continent. Let’s take this opportunity to redefine what it means to live in a city and\, in doing so\, redefine what it means to live on this planet.

SUMMARY:Build Green Now 2024
DESCRIPTION:Build Green Now is the main conference for IGBC members and offers a unique opportunity to network and engage with the leading national and international thought leadership. Be inspired to take action. . \n\n\n\nIt is an exciting but perhaps fearful time for sustainability property and construction professionals. At Build Green Now 2024\, speakers and panellists will explore how a whole new framework of European legislation such as the recently approved Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD)\, the Construction Products Regulation\, Sustainable Finance Regulations Directive (SFRD) and the EU Taxonomy will reshape regulations and finance for the built environment and its supply chain over the coming 3 years. \n\n\n\nHear about how IGBC is enabling the introduction of  limit values for whole life carbon. Hear about international approaches that could enable the Irish regulatory system  move far faster and help unlock the innovation needed in Ireland to decarbonise construction at the eyewatering speed needed to meet our 2030 targets. \n\n\n\nLeading European thinkers provide insight into the future of the circular economy and how our urban areas can play a key role in the transition to cutting unsustainable land\, resource use and biodiversity loss. Hear the latest initiatives from your Green Building Council including launch of taxonomy verification. \n\n\n\nThis is an RIAI CPD accredited conference offering 5 points.
