Now in its tenth edition, the competition for sustainable buildings, districts and infrastructures organised by the Construction21 network is strengthening its international profile by linking up with the objectives of the Chaillot Declaration, signed in March 2024 at the close of the Buildings and Climate Global Forum. By highlighting exemplary projects from around the world and making them available to as many professionals as possible, the Green Solutions Awards prove that solutions that meet the ambitions of carbon neutrality, resilience, mitigation, and adaptation already exist. 

The 2024-2025 edition was launched on the first day of the Mondial du Bâtiment, international trade show. The French Ministry for Ecological Transition (represented by Yves-Laurent Sapoval, DGALN advisor and ministerial delegate for sustainable cities), Ademe (The French Agency for Ecological Transition represented by Philippe Masset, Europe & International Director) and the United Nations Environment Programme (Hanen Hafraoui, Cities and Buildings Unit / Climate Change Division) talked about the objectives of the Chaillot Declaration and set out France’s ambitions in terms of decarbonisation.  

Applications are now open and you have until 10 February to publish your reference on the Construction21 website. Construction21 is hoping to set a new record for this anniversary edition, with a target of 230 projects in competition from 25 countries.
