Take part in Construction21 – an online platform for sustainable building solutions

Construction21 (www.construction21.org) is a set of national and one international online collaborative platforms dedicated to professionals active in sustainable building solutions. It originated as an EU project and was initiated by the French Building Performance Institute (IFPEB). The initiative now has the status of an international non-profit association since April 2013 (Construction21 AISBL) co-owned by all the current national “chapters”.

Use of the online platforms is totally free and user-led. The concept is that content is created by the users and moderated by recognized peer experts: case studies, products, forums, training.

300 000 unique visitors in 2014

Each national platform is developed by a set of renowned organizations in the country to ensure its independence, quality of content, and adaptation to national markets. Countries that currently have a national platform are Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Spain, Romania. The national platforms aka. “chapters’ are linked together via a central platform in English connected to Build Up, the European Commission online platform dedicated to Energy Efficiency in buildings.
