Abstract
This paper suggests that buildings could play an important part in supporting sustainable development in developing countries. It explores the relationship between buildings and sustainable development and begins to suggest how this should influence buildings and construction processes in developing countries. The paper describes work being carried out which aims to support a sustainable development approach in building and construction processes. In particular it describes lessons learnt, and the tools and approaches developed as part of Thuba Makote, a pilot school construction project and the Sustainable Building Assessment Tool (SBAT), a project that is developing a framework that aims to integrate sustainable development considerations into the briefing and design processes of buildings.
