Construction21 network is currently managed by an international non-profit association, Construction21 AISBL, which was established in April 2013 in Brussels at the end of the European project that funded the portal in its initial phase (2011-2013). The association is composed of national chapters, which manage the Construction21 portals in each country and collectively at international level.
