The International Biodiversity & Property Council IBPC (CIBI) is a pioneering network for professionals of the new Biodiversity and Real Estate sector
The IBPC is represented by actors of urbanism, ecology, construction and Real Estate. Its goal is to promote urban biodiversity and human-nature relationship in sectors such as Real Estate, construction and Urban Planning but also to promote living nature within the built up neighbourhoods. Biophilia plays major role in quality of life of each city-dweller. This is the reason why awareness-raising actions of the IBPC are aimed at both professional actors and the general public.
The IPBC promotes the best practices in terms of urban biodiversity during planning, development, maintenance, occupancy and improvement phases of the property cycle. BiodiverCity® schemes, a brand initiated by the IBPC, forms principal tools by serving a strong purpose in creating environment which accommodates various living nature spaces. These provide a strong justification of economic, sociocultural and functional factors.
