Sustainability Commitment Statement Approved

At meetings on Friday 11 February, the BEDI Ltd Board of Directors and the BDAQ Management Committee made a joint formal commitment to support the policy underpinning the partnership. The policy requires the partners to maintain sustainable practices within their operation, to promote sustainable practices in the design of built environments and to equip practitioners to advance the design of sustainable built environments in Queensland and throughout Australia.

The commitment is based on five key principles:
  1. Sustainable management and office practices.
  2. Waste minimisation in communications.
  3. Sustainable meeting and travel options.
  4. Advancement of sustainability through training, information and promotion.
  5. Inclusion of triple bottom line principles in the development of visions, goals and procedures.
If you want to read the full statement, it will be available soon via the "pages" box in the right hand column.
