Rede Tagus Research Cycle: Talk #6 – Climate Transition and Sustainability

The sixth session of the Rede Tagus Research Cycle, entitled "Conversa #6 – Transição Climática e Sustentabilidade" (Talk #6 – Climate Transition and Sustainability), will take place on 24 March at 18:30, at the Nuno Teotónio Pereira Auditorium, at the Ordem dos Arquitectos headquarters, in Lisbon.

The session, moderated by Nadir Bonaccorso (Terr.A.ID, ECATI, Universidade Lusófona), will feature a presentation by DINÂMIA’CET-Iscte researcher Elisabete Tomaz, entitled "Is Proximity Enough? Implications for urban planning and governance", along with presentations by Maria Matos Silva (CIAUD – Faculdade de Arquitectura da Universidade de Lisboa), Joana Mourão (CiTUA – Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa) and Alberto Reaes Pinto (CITAD – Universidade Lusíada de Lisboa) as well as a commentary by Frederico Rosa (CIM Península de Setúbal) and Pedro Trindade (Bruno Soares Arquitectos).

Founded in April 2024, the Rede Tagus is the result of a strategic partnership between the Ordem dos Arquitetos - Secção Regional de Lisboa e Vale do Tejo and six higher education research centres. The initiative’s mission is to develop joint efforts to bridge scientific research with the practice of architecture, urbanism, and design, fostering critical debate on territory and the city.

The cycle began with a meeting on "Science, Society, Architecture and Territory", aiming to promote dialogue between research, professional practice, and public decision-making, with a special focus on the municipalities of the Lisbon and Tagus Valley region, reinforcing the link between academic knowledge and concrete territorial challenges.
