Conference01 April 2016: Publication of Full papers begins The need to be housed is basic and yet, the forces that produce it in any city of the world are complicated, multiple, contradictory and often conflictive. In a place such as the city that hosts this conference, Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, this complexity is obvious. Located in the easternmost part of Europe and the western part of the Middle East it is the only remaining divided capital in the world and still operates with two separate national currencies.Taking as its starting point the complexity of its host city, this conference seeks to understand the range of interests and factors that shape the housing of our towns and how these affect issues of social inclusion, sustainable development and multi-cultural environments. In contexts of inevitable conflicting interests it seeks to understand how we engage and safeguard the rights, voices and needs of residents through design, research, technology, consultation etc.To this end, it welcomes cases studies, theoretical papers, project documentation and research findings from architects, sociologists, planners, technologists, resident groups and others.Details: http://architecturemps.com/cyprus/Email: admin at architecturemps.comThe conference is organised by Architecture_MPS and the University of Cyprus and the Cyprus Institute and forms part of a broader program of international events, Housing – Critical Futures:http://architecturemps.com/housing-critical-futures/Contact Email: admin at architecturemps.comURLhttp://architecturemps.com/cyprus
