“Sustainable built environment –
the role of the construction community in meeting the UN SDGs”
The work of CIB, its working commissions and task groups is closely aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and this is reflected in the theme of World Building Congress 2025 WBC2025, which is Sustainable built environment – the role of the construction community in meeting the UN SDGs.
Immediately below we have the program of workshops and seminars scheduled to take place during WBC2025. Further down the page we have the schedule for the whole duration of the congress. More information will be made available in due course.
