International Conference on 20th Century Housing Heritage in Europe at Technische Universität Wien 🏠🏘 Our cooperation partner Prof. Otsuki from Universität Tokio will also present his research. Registration necessary! Please visit https://lnkd.in/dyMmm7Gj for details and registration! #tuwien #conference #researchcollaboration

We want to invite intereseted students and colleagues to Prof. Otsuki's lecture on "History of Modern Japanese Collective Housing and the Need to Learn from the Succession of Collective Housing in Europe" which takes place on Nov. 27, 20224 at 19:00pm at the Festsaal in the main building at Technische Universität Wien, Karlsplatz 13. This event is related to the conference "20th Century Housing Heritage in Europe: Conserving, Participating, and Adapting". The conference focusses on housing concepts and built settlements of the 20th century, which often explicitly addressed hygienical, ecological, communal, and social issues and necessities. We ask how these heritage values can be conserved for the sake of sustainable futures. Forms of use, social interaction, and participation might contribute to the care and careful adaptation of such sites, but also create conflicts. Various actors—from business, politics, conservation, and civil society—define, appropriate, and manage this housing heritage and need to be involved. The conference also examines housing and climate policies, development pressure, and vacancy as powerful contexts. https://lnkd.in/dj2S2g4s #tuwien #todai #universityoftokyo #architecture

Takeru Shibayama from the Research Unit Transport Planning and Traffic Engineering (Forschungsbereich für Verkehrsplanung und Verkehrstechnik) at Technische Universität Wien and Kiyohito Utsunomiya (Kansai University) have recently published a new book on state-of-the-art sustainable urban mobility developments both in Europe and Japan. In Europe, cities of all sizes are transforming urban spaces and expanding mobility options to enhance sustainability and improve quality of life. The Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP), initially published in 2013 and updated in 2019 by the EU, serves as a framework for these initiatives. The book begins by exploring the latest advancements in sustainable urban mobility across Europe and Japan. It then revisits the concept of sustainability in the context of transport and mobility, summarizing the key principles of SUMP. Additionally, it addresses current challenges and potential improvements in Japanese transport policy, proposing strategies for a sustainable future in Japan. The book is available via Amazon: https://lnkd.in/dEuW_8nd And e-book: https://lnkd.in/d8Rz3EeJ #tuwien #kansai #researchcollaboration #transporation
