CIBSE works closely with partners across the built environment on a wide range of cross-industry initiatives that help shape policy, raise standards and drive progress on the issues that matter most to our members.
Through these collaborations, we bring building services engineering expertise to the forefront, informing government and other stakeholders, identifying where action is needed, and helping to advance policies that support safe, sustainable, and high-performing buildings.
These pages highlight some of the key initiatives we are involved in, demonstrating CIBSE’s leadership on critical challenges such as net zero and building safety. They reflect our commitment to working with others to influence change, support our industry, and champion the role of building services engineers in creating a better built environment.
If you would like to learn more about any of these initiatives or explore opportunities to engage directly with our partner organisations, please contact Sam Baptist [email protected].
