How much does architecture weigh when the future of the entire planet is at stake? What is the role of architecture and design amidst ecological crises, catastrophes and political upheaval? Can design make a difference, solve problems, and bring any radical change for the better?
Two days, three themes (ERA), with presentations on:
ENVIRONMENT
RESOURCES
ARCHITECTURE
The main themes have emerged from the topical phenomena of global crises; climate change, extreme weather conditions and the loss of biodiversity to the political, financial and societal changes in our environment. Check the programme HERE.
