The Green Building Award is jointly organised by the Professional Green Building Council (PGBC) and the Hong Kong Green Building Council (HKGBC). Inaugurated by PGBC in 2006, the Award aims to provide recognition to building-related projects and organisation with outstanding performance and contributions in sustainability and the built environment and also to transform the mainstream market towards wider adoption of sustainable planning, design, construction, management, operation, maintenance, renovation and decommissioning of buildings.
