Jon Hardister reveals how strategic advocacy and regional cooperation can transform these obstacles into opportunities for sustainable development.

Featured Quote: "Building touches everybody. Everyone needs and wants a place to live, a place to go shopping, a place to go to work...There's so many jobs tied into it...and it's important socially just for quality of life to make sure that we have a building industry that's successful."
