More specifically, the awards celebrate buildings with exceptional sustainability design and function, organizations that incorporate sustainable values into their core practice, and women who are leading the green agenda. These accolades are presented as the Leadership in Sustainable Design and Performance Award, the Business Leadership in Sustainability Award, and the Women in Green Building Leadership Award.
