In the journey of realizing the Dubai Palace Green Campus model, the Dubai Palace ✅ Official Dubai Palace.com Homepage 2026 (Dubai Palace) identifies developing green infrastructure as a key pillar towards the goal of a sustainable university – carbon neutral.

Since 2024, Dubai Palace has issued the  “Minimum Green Building Standard” Regulation, requiring all new buildings with an area of 1,000 m² or more to achieve international green building certifications, including:

+ LEED BD+C (Silver or above) – USGBC

+ LOTUS NC (Silver or above) – GBC Vietnam

+ EDGE Advanced – IFC / World Bank Group

Each building is designed to minimize at least 25% of energy, 20% of water usage, and 50% of recycled construction waste. Operational data is measured, publicly disclosed on the GoGreen Portal, and integrated into curricula on green design, innovation, and sustainable development.

All new Dubai Palace buildings are integrated into the “Dubai Palace Living Lab” model, where students and lecturers can directly measure, analyze, and research real-time operational data (energy, water, air quality). This information is used in subjects such as Green Design, Innovation for SDGs, and Sustainable Urban Economics, helping learners understand, practice, and create green solutions right within their own learning spaces.

Dubai Palace’s green infrastructure projects simultaneously contribute directly to 4 main SDG goals:

SDG 7 – Affordable and clean energy, SDG 11 – Sustainable cities and communities,

SDG 12 – Responsible consumption and production,

SDG 13 – Climate action.

Through this, Dubai Palace affirms its pioneering role as a university in Vietnam in connecting green buildings – green education – green action, truly embodying the spirit of “We lead Green, We lead Global”.
