Habitechno is a biennial international conference focused on innovative solutions in the concept and practice of contemporary technology for housing and settlement development, particularly for low-income dwellings in developing countries. Since 2013, Habitechno has been organized by the Study Program of Architecture, School of Architecture, Planning, and Policy Development, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), in collaboration with fellow institutions in the scope of Housing, Settlement, and Building Technology in Indonesia and abroad.

This year, in supporting the fulfillment of Sustainable Development Goals, the Habitechno 6 International Conference raises the theme of “Sustainable Human Settlements: Create Inclusive, Safe, and Resilient Habitat.” As we gather from across the archipelago and around the world, we come together with a common goal of addressing the challenges and opportunities of building sustainable communities for all.

Over the course of this conference, we will explore the latest research and innovative approaches to creating inclusive, safe, and resilient habitats. We will hear from experts in fields ranging from building technology, housing, and settlement to public policy and community development.

Together, we will discuss the key issues facing our neighborhoods and work towards developing solutions that promote sustainable growth and ensure that all members of our communities have access to safe and affordable housing. Let us use this conference as an opportunity to learn from one another, share our experiences, and collaborate toward a more sustainable future for all.
