BuildAction promotes solutions for the sustainable development and protection of the built environment. Some of the resources and tools assess the environmental, operational and financial performance of projects. Others guide responsible stakeholders and highlight risks to environmental change that can be integrated into the development and operation of buildings and infrastructure. A few tools are used to influence the design and implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
