====== Passive House Mountain Academy ====== The Passive House Academy is an informal meeting of Passive House experts held every summer. Since 2009, the Passive House Institute and IG Passivhaus Südtirol have been inviting friends from all over Europe to meet in the mountains for three of four days. The programme includes various topics relating to Passive Houses - there are no binding decisions, just an open exchange of ideas. Even so, concrete outcomes from past Academies are visible: in 2009, the idea of the [[http://j.mp/Architekturpreis|"International Passive House Architectural Prize"]] was created, and in 2010, important issues to be covered by Passipedia were discussed. Further information will be included in Passipedia soon. For the moment, here are some photographs. {{:picprivate:passivhaus_gebirgsakademie_2010_imag0263.jpg?640}} {{:picprivate:passivhaus_gebirgsakademie_2010_imag0265.jpg?640}} {{:picprivate:texel_group_p1110025.jpg}} {{:picprivate:ue_wf_2010-07_phgebirgsakademie_kra_001.jpg?640}} {{:picprivate:meran_valey_15-7-goerg-_15k.jpg?640|Valey near Meran; Foto: Manfred Görg}} {{:picprivate:on_the_mountain_goerg_53.gif|Academy on the Mountain; Foto: Manfred Görg}}
