In November 2018, GGGI’s Seoul HQ became the first office in the Republic of Korea to receive LEED v4 Gold certification for commercial interior. LEED, or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is the most widely used green building/office rating system in the world, which provides a framework to create healthy, highly efficient and cost-saving green spaces.
Healthy Workplace
GGGI has installed air quality assessment systems in its offices to collect data that can be used for reporting and evaluation to help improve working environment. Our offices are equipped with devices that measure levels of microdust, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide (CO2), temperature, humidity, and noise, and these measurements are consolidated and monitored real-time through an online portal.
GGGI Green Ambassadors Worldwide
GGGI Green Ambassadors in offices across the globe are committed to promoting environmentally sustainable operations and encouraging individual green lifestyle both at work and home. They actively engage GGGI partners and communities in conversation to combat global environmental challenges.
Since 2013, GGGI has been measuring and monitoring its carbon footprint as a step toward sustainable operations. These assessments help GGGI to implement initiatives and projects to strengthen and systematize green office operations
As part of our environmental sustainability efforts, GGGI promotes awareness through various initiatives and campaigns such as Green Office Month and publication of an internal magazine (“Greenism”) to showcase individual and organizational efforts for a greener lifestyle, and continues to focus on globally greening in-house operations and ensuring that GGGI positions itself as a green international organization.
