By CommonShare

Associazione Nazionale Architettura Bioecologica (ANAB), which translates to the National Association of Bioecological Architecture in English, is an Italian organization that promotes sustainable and bioecological architecture and building practices. ANAB was founded in 1989 and has since played a significant role in advancing the principles of ecological design, energy efficiency, and environmentally friendly construction in Italy.

ANAB works to promote and support the integration of sustainable design practices into architectural projects, focusing on reducing environmental impact, improving energy efficiency, and enhancing occupant well-being. The association provides guidance, resources, and training to architects, engineers, and construction professionals to encourage the adoption of bioecological principles and techniques.

ANAB also plays a role in developing and disseminating certification systems for green building projects in Italy. It has established its own certification scheme, called Certificazione ANAB-ICEA, which evaluates and recognizes buildings that meet specific sustainability criteria. This certification process encompasses various aspects of sustainable design, including energy efficiency, use of renewable energy sources, indoor air quality, waste management, and the use of environmentally friendly materials.

Through its activities, ANAB aims to raise awareness about the importance of sustainable architecture and to create a network of professionals and stakeholders committed to promoting environmentally conscious building practices. The association advocates for sustainable policies and regulations, conducts research, organizes conferences and events, and provides a platform for knowledge sharing and collaboration.

ANAB operates as a non-profit organization, working in the public interest to promote sustainable architecture and contribute to the broader goals of environmental protection and sustainable development in Italy.
