On the morning of December 17, the Ho Chi Minh City Association of Construction and Building Materials (SACA) organized a workshop with the theme “Green Transformation and ESG: Towards Sustainable Construction”. The event, chaired by the Sustainable Development Board of SACA, brought together many experts, businesses and organizations operating in the field of construction and sustainable development.
The workshop featured four speakers representing leading businesses, sharing specific solutions on green transformation and ESG (Environment - Society - Governance) applications in construction projects. The discussion focused on solutions to reduce carbon emissions, optimize processes from planning, design to construction, aiming at long-term sustainable development goals.
On this occasion, SACA signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Green Transition Consulting & Training Company. The cooperation agreement, signed by Mr. Pham Le Minh - Deputy General Secretary of SACA and Mr. Nguyen Cong Minh Bao - Co-founder and CEO of Green Transition Consulting, marks an important step forward in promoting sustainable development. This MoU opens up opportunities for cooperation in technology transfer, sharing solutions and implementing pioneering models in the construction industry in Vietnam. The workshop is not only a forum for knowledge sharing but also an opportunity to connect and promote sustainable initiatives, contributing to realizing the goal of green construction development in Ho Chi Minh City and nationwide.
Phase 2 of the BUV campus is designed and constructed to meet international standards, with a particular focus on the EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) certification — a globally recognized green building standard developed by the IFC (a member of the World Bank Group). Beyond academic excellence, the new campus promotes a sustainable, environmentally friendly learning environment that enhances the overall experience for both students and faculty. Remarkably, only 20% of the campus area is used for construction, while the remaining space is dedicated to landscaping, greenery, and open communal areas. This design approach reflects a philosophy of harmony with nature and aligns with Ecopark’s vision — Asia’s leading sustainable urban area committed to green and livable spaces.
A civilized and welcoming community not only fosters a sense of safety and belonging for its residents but also plays a key role in enhancing property value, creating lasting appeal and sustainable growth for the area.
