The Urbanism I Projects VI course is the continuation of the research on Migration developed in the previous Urbanism I and Projects V course

The teachers of the second quadrimeter of 4º of Urbanism I and Projects VI plan the course as a year of research on contemporary issues. This is a course that wants, from architecture, to imagine scenarios, habitats, spaces for a better world. We want this project and urban planning course to reflect on real problems. We firmly believe in the ability of the architect to transform and improve the territory and society from an optimistic, committed and open attitude.

MIGRATION AND TERRITORY Urgency and Opportunity

This course aims to study Migration as a social phenomenon, on a global scale, which silently affects the territory and our cities. A problem of the contemporary world that urgently calls for proposals and architectural views. Migrations are today a phenomenon that demands, from a humanitarian and architectural point of view, urgent attention. We cannot, from an architecture school that teaches how to design the city, housing and the landscape, ignore a problem on an urban, territorial and climatic scale. A question that inevitably needs the voice of the architect to be addressed with imaginative solutions and strategies to improve the contemporary living and social environment. Migrations are a social phenomenon that urgently demands decisions and architectural, urban design, infrastructure and landscape projects. Despite this, we do not want this 4th year of Projects and Urbanism to become an anthropology or humanities course. But maintaining a passive attitude, consciously not paying attention, to a global social and human problem is, without any doubt, a serious mistake.

We do not want to approach this course from the perspective of social responsibility and critical pessimism. Nor do we want to become the saviors of an extreme humanitarian situation. From our awareness, sensitivity and social responsibility, we want to address the problem of migration as an opportunity for the host territory. An opportunity to enrich culture and the local economy
