The Saudi Green Building Forum kicks off this week

The forum, hosted by the Saudi Municipal, Rural Affairs, and Housing Ministry, will focus on speeding up the construction industry's transition to carbon neutrality by promoting sustainable practices in energy, water use, and green cities.

The Saudi Green Building Forum is hosted on 9-10 October 2023 at King Abdullah Financial District’s Conference Center, Riyadh, bringing together some of the most avid advocates and supporters of the national SDGs, and thought leaders from esteemed organizations to discuss the Saudi green transformation that is shaping up to become the most ambitious in the world.
