The “National Green Expo 2022”

Green Building Council of Sri Lanka, being the pioneering organization committed to promoting environmental sustainability in Sri Lanka has decided to conduct an Exhibition Centre of the BMICH on 27^th, 28^th and 29^th of May 2022 with the aim of demonstrating the achievements of green technological innovations made so far by all sectors of the Sri Lankan economy such as agriculture, construction, manufacturing, infrastructure development, industries and the transport etc. to the general public. The other objective is to build awareness among the general public on the benefits of using the products that have been upgraded by integrating green technology. This will be a great opportunity for the public and corporate sector organizations to demonstrate their commitment for promoting green, while introducing their upgraded products and services to the public.

This exhibition will be distinctive among all other similar events because of its unique theme “Empowering Innovations and Green Technology” and the tagline ‘Smart, Inventive and Proven Green Technologies for Sustainable Development.

This exhibition will be another progressive milestone of the ‘GREENING SRI LANKA 2021/30’ Campaign launched by the GBCSL as its roadmap for achieving environmental sustainability and sustainable development in Sri Lanka.

The Green Building Councils in other countries in the Pacific Asia Region have agreed to collaborate with us in conducting this exhibition by providing technical and technological support and arranging leading industries in their countries to participate in this event as exhibitors. We are expecting the support and cooperation of the leading UN agencies operating in Sri Lanka for conducting this magnificent event.
