The WEF 2012 will be accompanied by:

There will also be a particular focus on Young Engineers for whom a special programme will be prepared together with the WFEO Young Engineers/Future Leaders Committee.

A few hundred participants, engineers, politicians, researchers, scientists and entrepreneurs from all over the world will present and exchange their opinions about sustainable construction, a major challenge of the 21 century. Special attention will be paid to the following topics:
•    Energy Efficient Buildings
