Our activities focus on the conceptualisation and realisation of long-term interdisciplinary projects, in which we collaborate with a global network of researchers and practitioners.
The core themes of these projects include
■ participation, diversity and social justice in networks of global knowledge production,
■ integration of informal urbanity in the new economic world order,
■ spaces of emerging data publics and platform industries,
■ political ecology, environmental activism and the production of nature,
■ discursive-critical spaces of curatorial action,
■ urban capital, building speculation and the architecture of finance,
■ urban transformation and the politics of territorial development,
■ loss of order, structural fracturing and the crisis of scale in the twenty-first century.
In the context of these projects, the CENTRE FOR GLOBAL ARCHITECTURE generates contributions to public discourse on the built environment, helps create new fields of architectural praxis, and offers doctoral candidates and postdoctoral researchers important support in the development of their scholarly and artistic careers.
Our research projects are funded by national and international funding organisations for basic research.
