15.50 Disclosure keynote

Dr Shamir Ghumra, BREEAM Director, BRE

Knowing and telling. There remains a pressing need for responsible and ethical leadership in the construction industry. The invisible global supply chain creates impacts and brings ethical risks into everyday business. We simply don't have the time to NOT act. We must do so by thinking about what we know because knowing and telling form the basis of disclosure which helps to inform all parts of the supply chain.
