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:COP31 | Housing affordability through energy efficiency and building performance
DESCRIPTION:The COP31 Presidency’s “35 by 35 Global Electrification Pledge” aims to increase electricity’s share of global energy use. Expanding clean power alone will not be enough. Energy efficiency\, deep retrofits and better building performance can reduce demand\, lower operating costs and support climate goals.  \n\n\n\nBuilding on Canada’s National Electricity Strategy and the Belém Call for Action on Sustainable and Affordable Housing\, this panel will explore how high-performance buildings provide a pathway to electrification. Drawing on experience in development\, design and affordable housing\, panelists will share practical lessons from new construction and large-scale retrofits. They will discuss how governments\, investors\, designers and housing providers can overcome barriers and scale solutions that improve affordability and quality of life. \n\n\n\nHosted by Canada Green Building Council
