The Hong Kong Green Building Week (HKGBW) is an annual public campaign co-organised by the Construction Industry Council (CIC) and the Hong Kong Green Building Council (HKGBC). With the theme of “Move Forward with Green Building. Next Station: Carbon Neutrality.”, the 2024 campaign aims to inspire the public to delve into the realm of innovative green building technologies and foster a deeper appreciation for local green buildings with the idea of "Green Building Express". By embracing the knowledge of green building, we can unite in our collective efforts towards the next station: carbon neutrality.
Four Green Building Powers
To further enhance the public’s recognition of how green buildings benefit humans and the environment, this year’s Hong Kong Green Building Week focuses on four Green Building Powers, including Health and Well-being, Resource Efficiency, Environmental Friendliness and Innovative Elements, and offers a diverse line-up of public activities.
In collaboration with various Green Building Partners, the Organisers have curated this fair and exhibition to encourage the public to develop a thorough understanding of the Building Life Cycle, from planning and construction to operation and retrofitting. The event aims to promote innovative green building materials and technologies, as well as the importance and benefits of green building. Through activities like Interactive Booths, Expert Talks, and Green Workshops, participants can engage with these concepts firsthand. Participants can redeem an exquisite souvenir upon completing the interactive games in each zone!
