UIA Turin 2008:
Congress Web Site On Line


After Barcelona, Beijing, Berlin, and Istanbul, the world community of architects has a rendezvous in Turin, Italy, on 29 June through 3 July 2008 for the 23rd UIA World Congress.

The Lingotto, once the main Fiat factory, converted by Renzo Piano into a convention centre, will host the event.

Under the theme Transmitting architecture, this global platform will explore how architecture communicates and is communicated; it will look at architecture as a transmitter, a vector for urban democracy and civilisation, a means of representation, exchange, and diffusion.

The CNAPPC (National Council of Architects, Planners, Landscape Architects, and Conservators - Italy) will oversee the organisation and management of the congress.
