The Green Star Advisory Committee and supporting advisory groups ensure the Green Star rating system continues to be Australia’s leading rating tool for the built environment. They also ensure continuous improvement of the certification process, and increase industry participation in Green Star.
Nominations are currently open for Advisory Committees, Advisory Groups and Expert Reference Panels.
