Street signage in urban Africa and Israel/Palestine

Memories, identities, politics

The exhibition will examine street signage in urban Africa and Israel/Palestine as an outcome of dialectic processes, short and long termed, of spatial production and attached imagery and symbolism. That is, beyond being a signifier of a spatial orientation per se.

Urban China and the challenges of sustainability

Medium conference

This is the second international event organised in the context of the Medium project. While research conducted in the context of the project focus primarily on the medium-sized cities Hangzhou, Zhuhai and Datong, the conference will consider urban China in its diversity, with a great variety of case studies including Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Tianjin, the region of the Taihu lake etc. It will address the issue of sustainability from a broad perspective, tackling ageing housing, social inclusion, urban governance, environmental sustainability, participatory processes in urban planning, with a multi-disciplinary approach ranging from geography, political science, economy, sociology, computer science, environmental science, etc.

How globalisation is transforming cities?

Organisées par l'Institut d'urbanisme de l'Alba - université de Balamand - les 19^e rencontres de l'APERAU 2017 se dérouleront du 21 au 26 Mai au Liban dans la ville de Byblos. La thématique principale portera sur le rôle de la mondialisation / globalisation dans la transformation des villes. Pour conduire cette exploration, nous proposons six entrées thématiques : les nouvelles centralités, les normes mondiales et les systèmes d'ajustement, les modèles et les logiques d'investissement, le rôle des objets métropolitains iconiques, le patrimoine et la mondialisation, et finalement le tourisme urbain et la mondialisation.
