Welcome To GBRI Community

Let’s join hands not only to build a greener world but also an equitable one!

Learning-Hub @GBRI is your #1 source for sustainability education, with more than 200 courses to choose from

Whether its to study in a group for your LEED or WELL exam or brainstorm sustainability ideas with your peers, community@GBRI has it all.

Explore & contribute on a wide variety of topics that touch human lives (people), mother nature (planet) and the economy (profit)

Who doesn't need a place to go to learn a quick new fact, get the inspiration you need, or hear a thought to break the monotony?

Let's create, share and make some headlines!

At GBRI, we believe that education and knowledge just at the hands of one person are not enough. The recent past has shown us that to see real change in this world, we need all our minds to come together and work towards the things that truly make a difference. Thousands of years of ideas, innovation, and action have led humankind to where we are today, and we wouldn’t have got here alone. And it is this true sense of collaboration and far-sightedness that will take us to the distant future.

For students, academics, or professionals of sustainability, the GBRI Community is a wonderful way to invite countless thinkers and innovators from all cultures, races, and walks of life to work together. As an organization and a community, we firmly believe a truly sustainable future must also be an equitable one where every human is treated equally and fairly irrespective of color, shape, gender, religion, political belief, or nationality—and our community is a hub for empowering all its members to learn beyond the borders and boundaries of convention.

Welcome home to the GBRI community where we don't stop with just learning.
