Elevate Sustainability In Your Community With The Sustainable Design Assessment Team (SDAT) Program

Elevate Sustainability In Your Community With The Sustainable Design Assessment Team (SDAT) Program

American Institute of Architects


The SDAT program is a community assistance program of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) that focuses on the principles of sustainability; the program is managed by the AIA's Center for Communities by Design. The SDAT program provides an integrated design and policy based assessment for participating communities. The SDAT will bring a team of volunteer professionals (such as architects, urban designers, planners, hydrologists, economists, attorneys, and others) to work with community decision-makers and stakeholders to help them develop a vision and framework for a sustainable future. The SDAT program is based on the AIA's goal of helping communities create a sustainable relationship between humans, the natural environment, and place. By achieving balance between cultural, environmental, and economic systems, communities can sustain a place as a stage for human settlement.

The RFP for the 2007 SDATs is currently open and will remain open until November 30, 2006. The AIA will provide up to $25,000 in cash and in-kind contributions per SDAT in 2007. Communities will provide a $5,000 cash match as well as contribute other resources to the process.
