Policy

One of the key roles of the In­ter­na­tion­al Pass­ive House As­so­ci­ation (iPHA) is to act­ively en­gage with policy act­ors and in­sti­tu­tions world­wide to sup­port am­bi­tious, ef­fect­ive build­ing stand­ar­ds. iPHA works in close col­lab­or­a­tion with in­ter­na­tion­al bod­ies such as the United Na­tions Eco­nom­ic Com­mis­sion for Europe (UN­ECE), the Glob­al Al­li­ance for Build­ings and Con­struc­tion (Glob­al­ABC), the En­nis­corthy For­um, the European Fed­er­a­tion of Agen­cies and Re­gions for En­ergy and En­vir­on­ment (FED­ARENE), and oth­er stra­tegic part­ners to drive policy changes that en­able high-per­form­ance, en­ergy-ef­fi­cient build­ings.

In­ter­na­tion­al co­op­er­a­tions

To­geth­er with the Pass­ive House In­sti­tu­te, iPHA is of­ten in­volved in col­lab­or­at­ive re­search and dis­sem­in­a­tion pro­jects e.g. co-fun­ded with­in pro­grammes of the European Uni­on. Through these ini­ti­at­ives, we con­trib­ute to the de­vel­op­ment of frame­works that make en­ergy-ef­fi­cient and cli­mate-re­si­li­ent build­ings a real­ity.
