Design is the foundation of any green building, here we explore design from an indigenous perspective; with emphasis on functionality and fit for our local context.

Beyond the personal and social wellness, is there a compelling case to build green? We explore the numbers that make green buildings an attraction.
3 - High Performance Buildings
While buildings are becoming carbon neutral and some even negative, we explore how to improve performance of buildings by establishing baseline performance levels with special focus on energy.
4 - Creating Smart Sustainable Cities
The case of Accra versus Copenhagen (Panel Discussion with resource person from Ghana and Denmark).
5 - Regulation and Certification
Desire alone won’t increase uptake of green buildings, we explore how state policies and regulation can spur increased consumption of nest practice as well as certification requirements.
