The 8th INTA conference will bring academics, activists, artists, and professionals to engage in a dialogue on Climate Justice and Resilience. Through this meeting, we will engage humanities, social sciences, and applied technology fields to foster a dialogue between built-environment disciplines; and humanities, social sciences, and applied technology fields to address how resilience plays key role in Climate Justice.
The conference will investigate how interdisciplinary built-environment studies, including but not limited to—Architecture, Architectural History, Landscape Architecture, Landscape History, Construction Management, Engineering, History of Technology, Urban Planning, Urban History, Urban Sociology, Urban Public Health, Justice Studies, Environmental Studies, Environmental History, Disaster Studies, Interior Design, Interior Design History, and Historic Preservation Studies—can address climate justice to build resilient communities.
