(Re)thinking resilience

Let us (re)think together to be an instrument for a change and to make a significant difference together.

PLEA Association is an organization engaged in a worldwide discourse on sustainable architecture and urban design through annual international conferences, workshops and publications. It has created a community of several thousand professionals, academics and students from over 40 countries. Participation in PLEA activities is open to all whose work deals with architecture and the built environment, who share our objectives and who attend PLEA events.

We will welcome all participants in the heart of Europe, at Wrocław to discuss the most actual and urgent topics related to the role of the built environment in the climate change mitigation and adaptation.

student design workshops

We are happy to announce that the PLEA 2024 conference is supplemented with a one-day Instant Climate Hub – on-site student design workshops. Running through the day of the 26th of June 2024, it takes place at the local Faculty of Architecture and aims at envisioning its sustainable future.

We cordially invite passionate students of design faculties to enroll and take part in this unique one-day think-tank.

The Instant Climate Hub is an improvised, temporary, international design think-tank made for one day within the PLEA 2024 conference framework. The Hub, fueled by students’ input with tutors’ support, is created to make the participants more aware of sustainable research and development and, consequently, of possibilities to solve climate issues through smart and resilient design.

The application deadline is the 3rd of May 2024, 23:59 CEST.
