What kind of projects are eligible for the Pearl rating?

The eligibility of all types of developments for the Pearl rating is grounded in Estidama's goal of promoting sustainability across various sectors. The Pearl Rating System was designed to evaluate and recognize sustainable practices in urban development and building construction, which means it encompasses a wide range of projects, including residential, commercial, and governmental developments.

By opening the assessment to all development types, Estidama encourages a comprehensive approach to sustainability, allowing different sectors to contribute to environmental stewardship and encouraging green building practices universally. This inclusivity also reflects the understanding that sustainability must be integrated into every aspect of physical development within communities, regardless of whether the project is a standalone residential building, a commercial enterprise, or a governmental infrastructure initiative.

This holistic approach not only supports diverse initiatives but also fosters innovation and collaboration in the pursuit of sustainable development goals across the board.
