Conversations on Humanitarian Architecture - THE ARCHITECTURE OF REFUGEE SHELTERS

The international humanitarian crisis has been accentuated in recent years, mainly due to the large flow of migration resulting from wars, socioeconomic problems, territorial disputes, ethnic-racial conflicts, environmental disasters and the current COVID-19 pandemic. According to the 2020 UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) report, there are currently nearly 80,000,000 people in forced displacement worldwide. The talks aim to address situations of transience, urban integration, reception and housing policies, among other topics, with the participation of several professionals and people in refugee situations. To foster a broader debate on humanitarian architecture, conversations were organized on the subject from the perspective of an expanded field, in the second half of 2020, always on Thursdays at 6:30 PM (Brasilia time) live-streamed for free online on Zoom and YouTube.
