Event Details

This conference will explain what the New Urban Agenda is and focus on the role architects can play in building the good city.

What is the New Urban Agenda?

Agreed at the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN Habitat) conference in October, the New Urban Agenda is a global strategy addressing the key issues affecting housing and sustainable urbanisation over the next two decades.

What does it mean for you?

Securing your role in building the cities of the future is vital. The New Urban Agenda provides a new global standard for sustainable urban development and it is essential that you understand this to contribute to our future cities.

Why should you attend this conference?

Times are changing and so must the profession. We need to think differently and work differently. Looking at the three main themes; housing, a cohesive society and cultural heritage, our impressive panel of expert speakers will provide more detail on what the New Urban Agenda means for architecture and how you can adapt to stay relevant in these changing times. This is a great opportunity to:

  • Hear from a global line-up of industry experts that you won’t see on any other conference programme
  • Network with others, share ideas and meet some of the people shaping the future of architecture
  • Gain clarity around the New Urban Agenda to help you stay relevant, think creatively and showcase your skills
