Online event

About

By crossing research excellence coordinated by researchers based in Portugal with an interdisciplinary approach "Towards a social history of the built environment", this seminar proposes to articulate and debate the most recent methodologies and research lines developed within collective projects in the comprehensive field of History and Theory of Architecture, intersecting with the experiences and research networks of the CES Thematic Line 5 “Urban Cultures, Sociabilities and Participation”.

The seminar aims to debate how these new approaches have influenced the most relevant research projects in this field coordinated by researchers based in Portugal.
