20TH-CENTURY HOUSING HERITAGE IN EUROPE: CONSERVING, PARTICIPATING, AND ADAPTING
Conference, Vienna, 28th–30th November, 2024
Deadline: 28th March 2024
The conference focusses on housing concepts and built settlements of the 20th century, which often explicitly addressed hygienical, ecological, communal, and social issues and necessities. We ask how these heritage values can be conserved for the sake of sustainable futures. Forms of use, social interaction, and participation might contribute to the care and careful adaptation of such sites, but also create conflicts. Various actors – from business, politics, conservation, and civil society – define, appropriate, and manage this housing heritage and need to be involved. The conference also examines housing and climate policies, development pressure, and vacancy as powerful contexts.
