The annual conference of the international construction body, CIB, will be held in Salford. This is due to the fact that the outgoing President, Professor Peter Barrett is an academic at the University's School of the Built Environment.

Building a Better World...The 2010 CIB World Congress is focused on Building a Better World. The construction and built environment sectors are already hugely important to achieving a world in which people are properly housed, in which buildings and transport systems support the efficient operation of our economies, and in which people are happy and healthy. But we can do better. Connecting and channelling the full capacities of the construction and built environment industries to meet the needs of the human race, head on, will transform the world, for us and for future generations.

The CIB World Congress is THE place to be to learn about the state of the art in markets, research and innovation linked to construction and the built environment. The Congress will include high profile presentations by leading authorities and thought leaders; trend reports covering a wide range of disciplines; perspectives on national and regional markets around the world; and the latest academic papers from every corner of the global built environment research community.

Hundreds of researchers from around the world will be meeting at the Congress, representing a strong multi-disciplinary mix of over forty CIB Working Commssions and Task Groups and, as well as running their own academic streams, they will be supporting a range of other activities and engaging in a busy social programme.
