“We have adopted the highest standards available in Qatar in terms of sustainable building through the GSAS (Global Sustainability Assessment System) standards.”
“We would like to sincerely thank the Gulf Organisation for Research & Development for leading the way with the development of GSAS, whose certification is an important milestone on the path towards hosting a sustainable FIFA World Cup and provides a model for other host countries to follow.”
“We are delighted that these efforts to make the 2015 building a standard-bearer for sustainable operations have been recognized through the awarding of the GSAS Operations certification from GORD.”
“I am pleased to sign a partnership agreement with GORD to develop studies, research and projects of mutual interest. I look forward to seeing the positive outcomes of our collaboration as both organizations work towards improving awareness and understanding of the actions required to create a sustainable future.”
“The objective of our partnership [with GORD] is to further leverage the role of educational institutions and the civil society in contributing to the implementation of the 2030 agenda and specifically the Sustainable Development Goal 13 for Climate Action. We are really looking forward to the prospects of long-term partnership and successful joint initiatives with GORD.”
“The fact that such a sophisticated certification system (GSAS) exists and is being widely used in Qatar is very promising. We’re extremely happy with the cooperation between FIFA, the SC and GORD.”
“GSAS accreditation demonstrates the Qatar Free Zones Authority’s commitment to the highest standards of sustainability in construction and building development, and providing top-of-the-line, long-term infrastructure for companies based in Qatar Free Zones. This award is also testament to our enduring contributions to achieving Qatar National Vision 2030 goals.”
“Qatar’s stadiums meet all the required sustainability measures to obtain GSAS certificates with outstanding ratings… The role of GORD in coordination with SC is very sound.”
