Pandemics and the changing built environment
Learning from history, planning our future
Organised by: INTBAU, Nanjing University, University of Trento, Özyeğin University, University of Idaho, Kuwait University.
2020 was an extraordinary year for all countries in the world. The pandemic has spread and has not ended yet, confirming that the world is dramatically changing. The scholars in the field of the built environment are increasingly discussing the relationship between survival and urban form, two concepts once closely linked. Besides this, the pandemic has brought us other questions: how can people get along with nature, how should we regulate social behaviours, and should we use science and technologies to improve the built environment?
The international conference provides a scientific platform for the discussion of:
Conference track 1: Learning from history
Conference track 2: Shedding light on the contemporary world
Conference track 3: The world is waiting for us to take action !
