Resilient and Responsible Architecture and Urbanism (RRAU) - 2nd Edition
Resilience in architecture is the design and planning of adaptive cities to sustain a life that is suitable to users providing them with an improved quality of life. In a word, architecture carries the responsibility of making a city more flexible and resilient. For this reason, IEREK has taken the responsibility of highlighting the role of architecture and urbanism in making our cities more resilient and sustainable. This is a summary of the scope of a series of international conferences on resilient and responsible architecture and urbanism RRAU held and organized by IEREK.
This conference is an opportunity to carry on with the discussion and rather add to research undertaken in the topic. Many of the issues laid out are concerned with efficient resources and urban areas, zero energy buildings, resilient infrastructure, energy and environment, and resilient in human scale to finally form a resilient city. Services, maintenance, recycling, and water management are also topics that fit the scope/theme.
IEREK welcomes scholars, researchers, students (undergraduate/postgraduate), organizations, municipalities and all stakeholders to contribute in this initative. Interested companies and individuals are also welcome to identify and exchange recent knowledge on the topic.
The publication of the conference proceedings will be available through Springer in a book series titled Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation.
