Who we are

The Committee on the Environment (COTE®) is an AIA Knowledge Community working for architects, allied professionals, and the public to achieve climate action and climate justice through design. We believe that design excellence is the foundation of a healthy, sustainable, and equitable future. Our work promotes design strategies that empower all AIA members to realize the best social and environmental outcomes with the clients and the communities they serve.

    Curious about the latest research in resiliency and design? Looking for an interactive session to learn more? Intersections Symposium 2018 features three interactive sessions moderated by noted architects, Alan Ricks (MASS Design), Shawna Meyer (Kennedy & Volich) and Billie Faircloth (Kieran Timberlake) on Friday, June 22 at the Javits, beginning at 7 am. These sessions each feature two research projects on resiliency and design as viewed through the lens of technology, ecology, and social/community. These six projects were selected via peer review from a field of 87 submissions from US and Canadian universities and feature work in Milwaukee, Boston, New Orleans and Columbia, South America.  Complete details and links to register for these sessions in the attachment.  Join us, join in the discussion, and add new services and expertise to your firm.
