GRASS, Leading the Nation
27 APRIL 2019, SATURDAY Philippine International Convention Center, Pasay City, Philippines
In response to the call to take action towards climate resilience and sustainable future, LDG Architects, in collaboration with the Green Architecture Advocacy Philippines and in partnership with the Philippine International Convention Center, launched Green Restorative Actions and Sustainable Solutions (GRASS).
GRASS is the first multi-disciplinary movement, led by the design community with the support of different institutions, organizations and individuals, designed to address climate concerns with direct action.
The first step is to take action and plant the seed…
GRASS is an initiative focused on action, results and collaboration. We have planted the seeds with Action 1- REFORESTATION DIALOGUE and WORKSHOP. The next step is to let it grow. GRASS is moving forward with its mission to bring the present to a Green and Sustainable future with Action 2, a follow-up exploratory meeting with the drivers of change to be hosted by Hon. Roberto Pagdanganan and the Boy Scout of the Philippines.
“Unless someone like YOU cares a whole awful LOT, nothing is going to get better, It’s not.” -Dr. Seuss
