The Institute of Ecotechnics thinks and acts on a planetary scale. What drives our work is the realization that our current ecological crisis is the growing imbalance between the “technosphere” and “biosphere.” This was why we set our goal to develop systems where technology is designed to work in harmony with the ecology.

Ecotechnics integrates two complementary fields of study: the ‘ecology of technics’ and the ‘technics of ecology’. For nearly 50 years, the Institute of Ecotechnics has convened international conferences and workshops that brought together leading thinkers, scientists, explorers, artists and managers to discuss everything from Planet Earth to Our Body, Brain and Behavior. Recordings of the nearly hundreds of lectures is in process of becoming a podcast on this website. Sign up for the newsletter for updates.
