What is the Energy Globe Award?
Initiated in 1999 by the Austrain Mr. Wolgang Neumann, it is today the world's most prestigious environmental prize honouring each year projects from all around the world which contribute to use the resources sustainably or apply renewables. For further information: www.energyglobe.info

Sustainable Housing in Europe (SHE) is a European Research and Development project, led by social housing organizations and co-ordinated by Federabitazione Europe - Confcooperative. It aims to demonstrate the feasibility of sustainable housing for all social groups, through a series of pilot projects in 4 countries, Denmark, France, Italy and Portugal.

ICA Housing wishes to congratulate Federabitazione Europe and all its partners for this award and for the inspiring work.
