The Israeli Biomimicry Organization is a non- profit organization that promotes learning and emulating nature’s forms, processes and ecosystems to create more sustainable human technologies and design.

The meaning of the word Biomimicry is “imitating life” (Bio=life; mimic=imitate). Biomimicry is the science of emulating nature's best biological ideas to solve human problems.  The basic assumption is that the answers for most of the problems we encounter have already been addressed by nature.  Scientists, engineers, architects and innovators can use nature’s models to create sustainable technologies and products for use in everyday life.

The Israeli Biomimicry Organization was established in 2009 by a diverse group of professionals. We aim to promote awareness and knowledge within the Israeli Academy and the Israeli educational system as well as within the engineering, building, design and industrial sectors.

The Israeli Biomimicry Organization offers lectures and workshops for professionals and for the general public and develops biomimicry-related curricula for schools and universities.

We wish to cooperate with people and organizations throughout the world who share our vision, values and interest.
