On Friday, November 22nd, SUMAC had the honor of participating in the EDGE Experts Café, organized by the Perú Green Building Council (GBCpe) and the International Finance Corporation (IFC). A key event for the sustainability and EDGE certification sector, this gathering brought together outstanding professionals to discuss the latest advances in EDGE certification, share experiences, and reflect on challenges and opportunities for sustainability in Peru and Latin America.
During the event, important news and updates related to EDGE certification and sustainable ordinances directly affecting construction and development in the country were shared.
Significant improvements to the Resource Portal platform were presented, where it is now possible to access updated resources such as:
EDGE presented a document to be updated monthly with information on critical issues and alternative solutions related to the EDGE standard and software. This will help sector professionals stay informed and resolve potential issues efficiently.
Advances in sustainable ordinances across various regions of Peru — such as Piura, Chancay, Iquitos, and San Martín — were discussed. These legislative changes continue to impact urban development and sustainability. At SUMAC, we actively work to help our clients stay current with applicable regulations and standards.
