This chapter explores the global landscape of sustainable construction, focusing on the shared goals, varied challenges, and innovative responses shaping the move toward environmentally responsible building practices. Sustainable construction is shaped not only by local conditions but also by international dynamics such as the availability of sustainable materials, technologies, and global certification systems. In many developing countries, reliance on imported sustainable components creates a need for greater cross-border collaboration. Drawing on the Breakthrough Agenda and related frameworks, the chapter outlines the urgent need for coordinated action to reduce carbon emissions and meet net-zero targets in the construction sector. It examines the socio-economic, cultural, and regulatory contexts that inform sustainable practices across different regions, acknowledging both common barriers and context-specific approaches. The chapter also presents emerging technologies including smart building systems, green infrastructure, and sustainable materials that are driving positive change in construction practices worldwide. Additionally, it calls for inclusive policies and stronger international partnerships to create a more balanced and accessible sustainable construction market. By offering a broad overview of global practices and collaborations, this chapter supports a deeper understanding of how sustainable construction can be adopted more widely and effectively in the built environment.
