In a continuously changing world, there has been a growing interest in the protection of vernacular heritage and earthen architecture. The need to protect and enhance this fragile heritage via intelligent responses to threats from nature and the environment has become evident.

However, for these particular forms of heritage to survive, academic research had to shift its focus, so as to respond to new challenges. **Vernacular Heritage and Earthen Architecture** gathers contributions of key international researchers from 50 countries, and covers a wide variety of topics: • Cultural heritage and building cultures • Materials and construction techniques • Territory and environmental adaptation • Energy effi ciency and sustainable design • Natural hazards and risk mitigation • Education and research focus **Vernacular Heritage & Earthen Architecture: Contributions for Sustainable Development** discusses the threats that vernacular and earthen heritage are facing, and refl ects on their important contribution
