We announce the 2nd call for abstracts for the 37th PLEA Conference for Sustainable Architecture and Urban Design and we invite you to submit your extended abstracts in the following research tracks:
- Sustainable Architecture and Urban Design – together for climate resilience
- Architecture for human resilience and well-being (including e.g., biophilic design, nature-based solutions, climate adaptation strategies for buildings and spaces)
- Analysis and methods for resilience and sustainability (e.g., new design and simulation tools, evaluation methods)
- Re-thinking resilience through renovations and adaptations of buildings and spaces (including cultural and natural heritage retrofitting, methods to improve performance of existing buildings and spaces)
- Building resilience with innovation and technology (e.g., innovative materials and sustainable technologies)
- Together we can – think, learn, teach and take the leadership (e.g., education and training, environmental activism)
In addition to the plenary and general sessions, the conference will also offer two Technical Sessions:
- Architectural education & urgency of climate action
- Bio-based materials and nature-based solutions
We expect to receive your abstracts until 30 August 2023. The only acceptable format for this conference is the 2-page extended abstract that must be prepared in PLEA 2024 Template (download above). Remember that abstract submission must be made through the PLEA2024 event management system https://plea2024.pl/conftool
It is important to keep in mind that by submitting an abstract authors agree that if their paper is selected, at least one of them will have to attend the PLEA 2024 Conference. The selected papers will be published in the book of proceedings which will be distributed during the Conference. This event has been planned as an on-site and on-line event. But if the process of overcoming the pandemic has yet not been completed by early 2024, it might turn into an online event. We hope it will not happen, but you will be notified in advance as soon as this can be determined.
