New organisation aims to make Qatar 'green capital'
The new Gulf Organisation for Research & Development is intended to establish Qatar as the Gulf’s ‘capital of green buidlings’.
Gulf Organisation for Research & Development (GORD) is the new name of the Barwa and Qatari Diar Research Institute, which was established in 2009 and developed Qatar Sustainability Assessment System (QSAS). This change in the name and identity came to meet the positive developments that Qatar is witnessing in applying and adopting QSAS locally and abroad.
Recently, the real estate sector has witnessed the launch of numerous projects from buildings to large urban developments. Adopting QSAS’s stringent standards provides potential residents of these projects with high-quality and unsacraficed lifestyles, but built with methods that promote sustainable usage of natural resources.
