The International Passive House Association (iPHA) is launching a new storytelling campaign to highlight the experiences, insights and journeys of our global Passive House network. Rather than focusing only on buildings, they want to showcase the people behind Passive House — your lessons learned, collaborations, challenges, and what iPHA/your affiliate membership means to you.

Industry leaders called to advance climate action and regenerative urban solutions

The symposium will take place during NYC Climate Week in September 2026 in Manhattan, convening practitioners and innovators advancing high-performance buildings, regenerative design, and scalable urban climate solutions. Proposals are due April 17, 2026.

We are so grateful to our event host, PID Floors!

The New York hub of Passive House, NYPH focuses on the mission of collaborative advocacy, policy initiatives, education, and resources, while promoting the vision of a carbon-neutral built environment for New York, broad implementation of Passive House, and achieving healthy, resilient, and durable buildings for all.

The passive house move­ment is alive and well in New York City, proving that even old build­ings can achieve extreme efficiency
