Partner event: ENHR Conference 2018

Date(s): 
Tuesday 26.06.2018 to Friday 29.06.2018
Location: 
Uppsala, Sweden

This year’s annual ENHR conference will take place in Uppsala on 26 – 29 June.
 
 

Theme: More together, more apart: Migration, densification, segregation.

 
 
The conference theme refers to developing realities throughout the world and Europe, including Sweden and the host city Uppsala. With migration across international borders, and rural-urban migration within countries, growing numbers of people are concentrating in urban areas.
 
 
At the same time, concerns about human environmental impacts and urban sustainability, among other forces, are energizing a push to increase residential densities in urban areas and otherwise tighten the urban fabric, all with the support of new policies, technologies and design approaches. Yet, just as more people are gathering in growing and densifying urban agglomerations, physical and social boundaries are solidifying between neighbourhoods and communities, defined with regard to ethnicity and socio-economic status.
