  INVITATION/KEYNOTES  
 

Welcome to join the 2009 Conference on Green Building.Towards Eco-City that will be held on October 11 to 14, 2009 in Taipei, Taiwan.

Taiwan, following the global pulse in pursuing a sustainable living environment, has been striving to establish a comprehensive green building promotion mechanism for the subtropical region for more than a decade. Today, in order to respond to the greater challenge of global environmental change that lies ahead, we are calling for cross-disciplinary solutions, successful practices, community actions, joint efforts, and creative ideas to elicit innovative green building schemes and to enrich the way connecting green building initiatives to eco-city development. We hope that through the knowledge-transfer platform of the conference and the contributions provided by all the stakeholders we may have better insights into the changing world and adopt concrete actions to protect the planet in which we are dwelling.

We look forward to meeting you in Taipei and believe that your participation will make the event unique and the interchange more fruitful.
