On the Need for a New National Architecture

#MAUCA_Modules As the climate crisis accelerates, architects must rethink the environmental impact of buildings. The "Architecture in a Climate Emergency" module in the MSc Architecture, Urbanism and Climate Action (MAUCA) equips students with advanced knowledge of #climatechange and its relationship to the built environment. Throughout the twelve-week module, students will explore climate science, resource depletion, and the life cycle performance of buildings. They will engage with current debates on #sustainability and apply their learning to real-world challenges, both in Ireland and globally. By the end, students will be able to design with #energyconsumption, #carbonintensity, and in-use performance in mind, contributing to a sustainable future for architecture.

I support urging all parties to prioritize sustainable urbanism and architecture for a better future " In light of this, we urge all parties to acknowledge that sustainable urbanisation – and the role of architecture – must be prioritised in this pact for the future." by UIA declaration at #summitofthefuture https://bit.ly/4ebLAqu

17TH ANNUAL WORKSHOP OF LATVIAN SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE TO PREPARE PROPOSALS FOR UKRANIAN URBAN AREAS DEVASTATED BY WAR The workshop was held from 19th to 23rd of September 2022 in which students from top Universities of 6 different countries (India, Germany, Hong Kong, France, Latvia, Ukraine) participated. The theme of this year’s workshop was "RENEWAL OF URBAN ENVIRONMENT IN UKRAINE". WORKSHOP OF LATVIAN SCHOOLS OF ARCHITECTURE is an annual students event aimed to simulate working conditions close to real. The basic idea is to organize creative process with involvement of different architectural sub-specialities necessary to insure full scope of activities within the process of solving the task set by the organizers. The final product has to be delivered within a week time. No deadline prolongations are accepted. All the communication among the parties is done on-line. Students from 1st Year Master of Urban Design participated and presented some of the best ideas for Urban Renewal Projects. #urbandesign #mastersdegree #workshop #urban #latvian #ukraine #urbanrenewal #renewal #architecture #event #students #universities #creative #projects #proposals #environment #presentation #ideas

What is the schoolyard of your dreams like? 🍋Murcia's Directorate-General of Housing & Architecture led a series of 4️⃣ workshops at local schools which gave students capacity to transform their schoolyards to be green, resilient & healthier places! Through innovative methodologies and by applying citizen science, the aim was to reflect on the capacity of NbS and urban green to transform schoolyards into kinder, healthier, more sustainable and resilient places. The objective was that the results of the workshops would provide useful information to give final shape to the projects to be executed in the selected schools as well as promote the incorporation of natural elements into school spaces. "At the Ministry, we support the #GoGreenRoutes Project, and we wanted to accompany the educational centres participating in the workshops to find out what their needs are and offer them a better Quality of life." María Dolores Gil García, Director General of Housing and Architecture of Murcia 🇪🇸 Want to learn about the workshop outcomes?
