Thematic Conferences & Events
In addition to the biennial conference, the EAHN collaborates with institutions across the world to organize smaller, more focused themed conferences and seminars. These events are intended to raise the international profile of the Network through local collaborations and to promote inclusivity and interdisciplinarity.
States in Between: Empire and Architecture in East Europe and North Eurasia
Helsinki, Finland
June 7-9, 2023
The ongoing war in Ukraine has made it clear that there is a need to re-evaluate and retune ourselves towards the practices of colonialism, empire-building, and centre-periphery relations, and to ask questions about national identity and built heritage in Eastern Europe and Northern Eurasia, including the histories of Soviet and Russian architecture and the built environment at large.
Call for Papers is closed.
The Third Ecology
Reykjavik, Iceland
11-13 October 2023
The effects of the anthropogenic climate crisis has compelled a resurgence of scholarship about the often fraught relationship between the built and the natural environment. The conference will be chaired by MoMA’s Ambasz Institute and Listaháskóli Íslands (Iceland University of the Arts).
Call for Papers is open.
