Global Buildings Performance Network
GBPN’s services, tools and resources enable the latest global learnings to reach building practitioners, governments and organisations — accelerating change and influencing building policy.
As an active policy reformer GBPN is uniquely positioned — with resources, experiences and insights updated regularly. The result is a leading digital and intellectual resource, working with our knowledge partners to offer online and on-site education.
OUR PROGRAMS
Our programs develop the capabilities of regional institutions and the value chain; helping users to adapt and implement the world’s best practices in policies for sustainable buildings. Programs include:
- Short courses
- Pitch to Policy
Short Courses
GPBN Education programs (whether online, mixed or on-site) offer a recognised resource with international standing.
Our experts draw together an endorsed curriculum for policy makers and building practitioners to improve policy planning, reform and implementation. We provide masterclasses on building decarbonisation, supported by innovative mobile, augmented and virtual reality applications.
After registering, participants will be able to access to free self-guided learning materials through the GBPN website. We encourage you to subscribe to receive a credentialed record of learning and access our mentors.
PITCH TO POLICY
‘Pitch to Policy’ (P2P) is a learning and ideas competition, created by GBPN to generate innovative plans for decarbonising housing. We run several P2P across Asia and other target jurisdictions each year.
After registering, applicants submit their concepts. If you are short-listed you’ll join a 20 hour virtual course and boot camp, designed to give you the tool and knowledge to advance your concept.
The boot camp ends with a final pitching competition. Building practitioners who complete the learning receive a credential and are admitted to GBPN’s Network of Experts. The winning teams are supported by GBPN for mentors and sponsors.
