2nd Fall Symposium Building Beyond Borders
The Faculty of Architecture and Arts, Hasselt University would like to invite you to participate in the 2nd Fall Symposium Building Beyond Borders - Reflecting on the agency of architecture for regenerative and distributive solutions in the Global North and the Global South on 17 - 18 November 2022 in Hasselt, Belgium.
After the successful first Fall Symposium in 2020 with more than 100 participants from over 30 countries, we would like to continue the conversation and reflect this time on the agency of architecture in creating changes towards more regenerative and distributive solutions and approaches in the building sector, both in the Global North and the Global South.
Two keynote speakers, prof. dr. Akemi Ino (University of São Paulo, Brasil) and arch. Joshua Peasley (CAUKIN Studio, UK), who have extensive expertise in this domain will highlight different perspectives on the topic of regenerative and distributive design and build projects in different contexts.
Presentations on finished and ongoing research and design/build work/projects will be given by both academics and practitioners and will be followed by discussion sessions.
For those who want to attend the conference, but want to avoid excessive environmental impact by taking a plane, are not in the ability to leave their country or have limited financial means, we offer the option to participate in the Fall Symposium in a remote way, both for active contributions and for attendees of the Symposium.
As a side event, a one-day hands-on workshop focusing on geo- and biobased materials is organised by UHasselt, in collaboration with Woonder and BC Materials, Wednesday 16 November. Registration is open for students and professionals.
We look forward to meeting you at the Fall Symposium and/or the Symposium Workshop!
