With over two dozen planned educational events, plus partner events, SBW will increase the profile of sustainable building issues through outreach, advocacy and education. A collaborative group of volunteer professional organizations and academic institutions has come together to provide a truly compelling program. October 11, 2021 kicks off the fourth annual Sustainable Building Week (SBW) an event-filled week from a cross section of Portland’s design professional organizations. SBW 2021 will run one week with a balance of in-person and virtual events. Our aim is to bring the best and brightest together to educate, connect and foster opportunities for future collaboration to Keep Portland Green. Whether its combating climate change, protecting our natural resources or investigating the increasing number of dangerous chemicals in our indoor spaces, the multitude of issues that need to be addressed require more attention by all of us.
