We're a Proud Member of the WorldGBC

The World Green Building Council (WorldGBC) is a global network leading the transformation of the built environment to make it healthier and more sustainable. We are part of the WorldGBC Corporate Advisory Board - a select group of companies which serves to guide WorldGBC on its strategy and activities.

Health and well-being are fundamental human rights for everyone, anywhere in the world.

Our six principles cover all stages of the building and construction life cycle, as well as broad socioeconomic and environmental determinants of health - a new position for the global WorldGBC network. We are proud to defend this ambitious leadership.

Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment

As a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact, Shaw Contract is committed to support the World Green Building Council’s Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment.

The Net Zero Carbon Building Commitment drives the scale and pace of action necessary to reduce carbon emissions and requires a transformation in the way we design, build and operate buildings. The aim is to inspire industry and governments to develop aggressive strategies to start the actions necessary for change, and to fulfil their obligations within the Commitment.
