GDI 2027
The series moves to Southeast Asia.

The third edition of GDI will be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in October 2027. It is the first time the conference leaves New Zealand, a step that reflects how the series has grown from a single Auckland event into an international platform with authors, reviewers and partners across Asia, Australasia, Europe and the Americas.
The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) in Malaysia is the local organiser. GDI 2027 will open with a half-day session followed by two full conference days. Themes, the call for papers, publication outlets, committees and registration will be published here as each is confirmed.
