Description

It’s almost here: The World’s First Open Week of Architecture and Urban Planning at UIA2021RIO!

Join us for an entire week of discussions at the 27th World Congress of Architects – UIA2021RIO with the world’s leading experts on this issue: Weaknesses and Inequalities.

The world is facing massive challenges: a billion people are living in ramshackle settlements; 2.5 billion have no access to sanitation infrastructure; and 1.8 billion have no access to clean water. In 2016, more than seventy million refugees were displaced. Added to this are the figures for urban violence, all set against the background of the pandemic.

Add your energy to this global meeting, helping build up urban life that is healthier, more supportive, and less unequal.

Be part of this transformative movement!
