DESCRIPTION:The next 5 July 2021\, HRC organizes a day of local and intern
 ational exchanges (Online events) among research centers and laboratories 
 on contemporary urbanization in transition.\nResearchers and scholars from
  ENAC\, EPFL and UNIL are invited to share ideas and proposals for action 
 aiming at transversal research initiatives on urbanization and urbanized t
 erritories!\n \nProgram:\n\n5 JULY 2021          HRC DAY\n\n09:00 - 
 09:15         Welcome & introduction of the morning session\n\n09:

   Transdisciplinary approaches to urbanization in transition\n      
                         Internal seminar within ENAC\, EPFL an
 d UNIL\n\n\nCALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS (IDEAS AND ACTIONS) OPEN TO RESEARCHERS
  AND SCHOLARS FROM ENAC\, EPFL AND UNIL: In the frame of environmental and
  demographic changes\, urbanization is (re)emerging as a crucial field of 
 investigation. Contemporary urbanization and urbanized territories must be
  approached with regard to the complex problems they raise\, but also as p
 art of many sustainable solutions in order to implement a necessary socio-
 ecological and spatial transition. Transdisciplinary approaches bridging a
 cademia and society are needed for the design of future ecological\, healt
 hy and productive habitats.\n\nHRC INVITES RESEARCHERS AND SCHOLARS FROM E
 NAC\, EPFL AND UNIL TO SHARE IDEAS AND PROPOSALS FOR ACTION AIMING AT TRAN
 SVERSAL RESEARCH INITIATIVES ON URBANIZATION AND URBANIZED TERRITORIES. We
  encourage the short presentations (10 to 15 min) to focus mainly on futur
 e challenges and opportunities\, rather than past research achievements. T
 he presentations will be followed by a collective discussion among contrib
 utors and auditors.\n\nPLEASE CONTACT US WITH A SHORT ABSTRACT (MAX. 200 W
 ORDS) UNTIL 30/06/21: habitat@epfl.ch\n\n\n11:15 - 11:45
