Auroville Green Practices Seminar 2012
In a 3 day hands-on workshop held at Auroville, more than 75 participants explored ways of realizing Energy Positive Habitats. Participants came from various professional backgrounds such as: urban planning, architecture, policy and consulting. Highly interactive sessions stimulated discussion and knowledge sharing among all participants. The workshops sessions at Energy Positive Habitats were facilitated by senior experts in areas of urban ecology, energy policies, energy management, governance, green archtectures, solar and wind installations and related areas.
Auroville Green Practices brings together various stakeholders to envision future townships that offer a ecologically, socially and economically nurturing habitat.
