The Living Memory of Cities is a project originally conceived by Dr José de Paiva as an international symposium, and convened thereafter as a collaboration between Eric Parry Architects and research group Ecological, Architectural and Civic Humanities in Design (EACHiD) at CUBE: the Centre for Urban & Built Ecologies.
Through two series of seminars running from November 2020 - March 2022 and an international symposium in Summer 2022, this project will facilitate an ongoing knowledge exchange between practitioners, planners, academics, students and the general public.
Please sign up for tickets for an online seminar by using the following booking links. Everyone is welcome.
