With industrialization, buildings vis-a-vis the built environment increasingly helped establish patterns of consumption that lead to a significant
depletion of half of the world’s resources by early 21st century, while giving rise to global warming and climate disruptions. More recently, in order
to arrest global warming, resulting from human activities on earth, a civilization target of keeping the temperature rise below 2°C has been agreed
upon by communities of the world. In the backdrop of such a scale of the challenge, governments across the world committed to working towards a
sustainable future by identifying transformative and holistic development goals. In the design, construction and operation of buildings can green
architecture provides solutions that are environmentally friendly, socially responsive, functionally and economically appropriate to its contexts while
connecting to overarching Sustainable Development Goals? In other words, can a new role for Green Architecture be identified as a facilitator in
achieving the development goals? In facing up to such challenges and targets, there is a growing need for a symbiosis between the industry and the
academia to come to a common ground and to develop possible partnerships in tackling the issues of sustainability pertaining to the built
environment and to inspire environmentally friendly design initiatives
