International Earth Sheltered Building Association

The International Earth Sheltered Building Association (IESBA) is a professional organization focused on promoting and sharing knowledge about earth-sheltered construction, where buildings are partially or fully built into the ground for energy efficiency and sustainability. They provide resources, research, and networking opportunities for architects, engineers, and builders interested in these environmentally friendly structures. The association aims to advance best practices, standardize methods, and support innovation in earth-sheltered building design to improve resilience, reduce energy costs, and promote sustainable development worldwide.
