More than at any other time in history, man is at the centre of creating uncertain futures for the planet and simultaneously searching for long-term sustenance of the planet. The unstoppable developments in technological applications in environmental studies and the need for eco-sensitive approaches are driving debates on the Anthropocene in sole, multidisciplinary, and interdisciplinary studies in the built environment, allied fields, and all fields of knowledge and practice.
Therefore, this conference brings together researchers, professionals, policymakers, and concerned humans from all fields engaged in future studies of the built and natural environment to present, expose and consider the multivalent possible futures of the planet earth and the uni(meta)verse. The anticipated contributions are expectedly difficult to classify because of the broad scope of the conference title, but a few subthemes are in the attached flyer.
Hybrid Conference; Face-to-face and Online (see attached flyer)
