The expo includes various activities such as field trips to outstanding projects in Kien Giang that have adopted green architecture, energy saving, and environmental-friendly materials.

The event comprises a plenary session, two thematic seminars and an architecture exhibition.

At the plenary session and discussion with the theme "Architecture - creating a sustainable space for the community", domestic and foreign experts will debate and contribute ideas to the policy framework with the goal of achieving sustainable architecture, meeting the requirements of climate change and preventing epidemics and natural disasters.

They are anticipated to make suggestions on models, aiming to improve design quality, ensure sustainable development and create a mechanism to promote the application of science and technology and a new model of green building in Vietnam./.
