Architecture, urbanism and lifestyles

Presentation

Scientific Director: Valter Balducci

The theme of the partnership chair "Living with water" concerns the relationship between urbanised areas on the coast, along rivers and lakes and the risks of flooding and submersion due to contemporary climate change.
The specific issues of the border areas between land and water offer an opportunity to rethink the territorial project . They call into question disciplinary fields that have developed expertise, know-how and methods of knowledge and urban design.

The chair proposes to develop a convergence of teaching around three territories, Guadeloupe, Normandy, and Vietnam, in which ENSA Normandie has already developed actions concerning architecture, landscape, and the making of urban and territorial projects.

Objectives

  1. To develop a synergy between research and training on issues relating to the dynamics of transformation of existing territories in the face of contemporary climate phenomena.
  2. Promote thematic and methodological renewal in initial and continuing training
  3. Contribute to the articulation of scientific, experimental and participatory research approaches for ENSAs, with the support of the different actors in the territory, local authorities and universities.

Training

In initial training, the Chair proposes to thematically articulate the training modalities currently in place and to open new joint training courses with academic partners, such as master's degrees in two courses, or DPEA.

In the field of continuing education, the Chair proposes the creation of training courses for architects aimed at raising their awareness of the relationship between coastal and river territories and water. These courses are aimed at professionals in architecture and regional planning, actors involved in the preservation of resources and natural and cultural environments, and local authorities responsible for risk prevention. They will benefit from advanced technical and analytical training in theinterpretation of physical phenomena and theevaluation of their spatial and social impact, as well as in the graphic synthesis of transformations in terms of territorial sustainability.
