INTERNATIONAL
advisory group
GBC Italia is excited to announce an opportunity open to the international community of green building leaders to participate in shaping the next generation of rating system for green historic buildings.
We have always been committed in applying sustainability principles to our historic heritage and buildings and since 2015 we launched the GBC Historic Building® rating system, based upon scientific methods applied to the conservation, restoration and regeneration of historic buildings.
Since then, 12 buildings have registered under the GBC Historic BuildingTM and 4 have achieved the certification.
Our Association is interested in stimulating a new wave of regeneration of the building market through the integration of history and green building practices, by sharing its own GBC HB rating system with the international community, thus expanding its applicability beyond the Italian market.
With your help, an international version of GBC HB will be developed to ensure the rating system becomes technically and readily applicable globally, changing the way the market operates on historic buildings by integrating ecology and restoration practices.
Watch the video below about the GBC HB session in the last GBC Italia Masterclass!
Become a member of the International Technical Advisory Group!
