International Women’s Month: ALCBT Empowers Women in the Built Environment
From architects and engineers to policymakers and sustainability practitioners, women across the region are contributing their expertise to make buildings more sustainable, energy efficient, and climate-resilient.
Through GGGI’s Asia Low Carbon Buildings Transition (ALCBT) project, women from Cambodia, India, Indonesia, and Thailand are strengthening their knowledge and leadership in the transition toward low-carbon buildings.
This International Women’s Month, we celebrate the growing contributions of women driving change in the building sector. Hear reflections from women professionals who participated in ALCBT capacity-building trainings:
About ALCBT
The Asia Low Carbon Buildings Transition (ALCBT) Project is a five-year initiative (2023-2028) that seeks to reduce GHG emissions by catalyzing nationwide transitions towards low-carbon buildings in five Asian countries: Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The project is funded by the Government of Germany’s Federal Ministry for the Environment, Climate Action, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMUKN), through the International Climate Initiative (IKI), and is implemented by a consortium led by GGGI, in partnership with the ASEAN Center for Energy (ACE), Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL), and HEAT GmbH.
In Cambodia, the project works in close collaboration with the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning, and Construction (MLMUPC) as the government counterpart. The project will institutionalize a building carbon assessment tool, integrate it with national energy codes, and support the country’s climate targets outlined in the NEEP and NDCs.
