Symposium: Design for Inclusivity: UIA2023CPH Science Track Panel 5

Description

Presentation for Panel 5: Design for Inclusivity, as part of the International Union of Architects (UIA) World Congress to be held in Copenhagen during the Summer of 2023. Align with the slogan of the congress "Leave No One Behind", Panel 5: Design for Inclusivity ask us to redefine who those "no ones" are and ensure that our definitions include more than just the normative stance- to include the diversity of gender, ability, neurodiversity, age, race, ethnicity, and socio-economy.

Arguing that sustainability, in its most holistic definition, cannot be achieved without a collective act the event will ask: What responsibility do architects, clients, developers and users who shape our built environments have to implement social justice and how does that apply when existing policies and practices do not fully enable that?

Through talks, panel debates and lived experiences the pre-event will explore these questions and discuss the built environment as facilitator of inclusion and exclusion. The lived experiences of the programme will be in the form of tours that convey inclusion and exclusion inside and around the new building of Aarhus Architecture School, which opened in 2021.
