DESCRIPTION:The next New Climates in... Lausanne continues the exploratio
 n of Hidden Rivers as an initiative of the Habitat Research Center at E
 PFL\, is planned in collaboration with the Laboratory of Urbanism’s Wate
 rs Seminar series\, an international exchange platform regarding water env
 ironmental issues between scholars and experts across practice and scienti
 fic fields. It is planned to take place on September 24\, 2021\, from 17:0
 0 to19:30\, online via Zoom. \n\nUrban Hidden Rivers addresses the chal
 lenge faced by river courses across urbanized territories. Historically\,
  urban rivers have been a vital resource and link between the inhabitants 
 and the natural environment.  However\, the increased push towards urban
 ization and industrialization have resulted in the Anthropocene states of 
 rivers\, whereby waters have become diked to prevent floods and channeled 
 for other usage.  The modification of natural river courses into more h
 ydraulic infrastructure\, has degraded the natural ecological states of wa
 ter-ecosystems\, paradoxically resulting in more severe climate change imp
 acts including microclimate and flood risks. \n \nThrough an exchange be
 tween issues across social\, political\, ecological and urban realms\, the
  aim is to reimagine the future of urban rivers\, however regenerated\, re
 vitalized or otherwise\, through the gaze of the multiple actors involved 
 for a more social ecological transition across these territorial rivers.
