The “HERITAGE 2025 International Conference on Earthen and Vernacular Heritage: Conservation, Adaptive Reuse and Urban Regeneration”, that took place on September 10th-13th at the Universitat Politècnica de València, has been organized within the framework of three research projects, among which “Earth4Future – Sustainable Reuse of Earthen Architecture and its Lessons for Contemporary Architecture” funded by the Spanish Ministry for Science and Innovation and directed by the Universitat Politècnica de València with the participation of other universities.
Earth4Future primarily aims to research the energy behaviour and the viability of compatible interventions in earthen constructions in Spain. It seeks to identify solutions which increase energy efficiency and reduce emissions without jeopardising cultural, heritage and social values. This project analyses issues such as respect of the heritage values, real economic cost, environmental impact and energy efficiency based on studies carried out on historic earthen constructions together with contemporary applications of earthen techniques in new constructions.
