  • Encourage collaboration, enabling GPA members to:
    • support and communicate the work of other GPA members;
    • pro-actively contribute to the work of other GPA members where member interests are aligned; and
    • identify any gaps and engage collectively to address them.
  • Advocate for greater consistency of key sustainability metrics and across reporting frameworks for commercial real estate.
  • Support industry-wide efforts to improve the provision, governance and transparency of sustainability data for commercial real estate.
  • Identify knowledge gaps and/or emerging issues, facilitating a co-ordinated approach to research where this would be beneficial to GPA members.
  • Providing clear, coherent and co-ordinated messaging to key audiences, including the Government, on policies and actions that would support greater progress on sustainability in commercial real estate.
  • Demonstrate to Government, other public sector bodies, members, media and, where appropriate, the wider public the initiatives being taken by the industry to improve its sustainability performance.
  • Provide a clear point of contact for other stakeholders seeking to engage with the commercial property sector on sustainability issues.
