"Towards an Action Plan for Energy Efficient Housing in the UNECE region" - 23-25 November 2009, Vienna, Austria

The International Forum in Vienna, entitled \"Towards an Action Plan for Energy Efficient Housing in the UNECE region\", will now focus on institutional, legal, policy, technological, public awareness, financial and other measures and solutions to enhance energy efficiency in housing.

The results of the International Forum and the related measures presented will feed into and contribute to the development of the Action Plan for Energy Efficient Housing to be developed under the UNECE.

The International Forum is a follow-up of a previous event that was held in Sofia on 21-22 April 2009 and focused on benefits and challenges of energy efficiency in housing, considered some cases studies and pilot projects in the region, and made some recommendations on priority actions to be considered by the UNECE Committee on Housing and Land Management.
