The network’s initial operations will be in the Philippines where the foundation has been established through relationships with three NGOs – Plan International Philippines, Habitat for Humanity Philippines, and No One In Need.

Approximately 100 leaders from the Philippine building and construction industry attended the launch event which took place at the Raffles & Fairmont Hotel in Makati.
