USGBC’s commitment to transforming the way we do business in the building industry includes social equity. Without social equity, our projects and organizations cannot be truly sustainable.

Join us for our fourth and last 2021 Women in Green Leadership in Equity Through a Sustainability Lens where we will discuss what exactly it is social equity and how do we incorporate it into our every day lives, our work culture, practices and LEED projects, and our larger communities. How do we be steadfast and strong (2021 WIG theme) with building equity into all that we do across across Florida? This WIG will address these questions and more.

Men are welcome too, of course! Advance registration is required. Login instructions will be emailed to registered attendees 24 hours in advance of the session. You may also pose questions you’d like to discuss related to this topic in the registration!
