Sustainability strategies for habitat –like re-design, rehabilitation, recycling, reusing and revitalisation- are the foundation for reducing the energy demand and the emissions of the neighbourhood, building system and the construction systems, in order to foster the regeneration of social cohesion and the improvement of habitability both in the interior of houses as in urban space in the Mediterranean urban fabrics.

The main goal of the Postgraduate Diploma in Ecohabitat will reveal the large variety of evaluation tools for urban sustainability from a systemic approach, from the neighbourhoods and the urban space, to the construction systems, building materials and flows of the building, as well as redefining the building typology in close cooperation and participation with the users.
