Conference Brief
CyNUM’s 2nd Regional Urban Morphology Conference aims to establish a common platform to discuss further how cities, in the
context of the south-eastern Mediterranean, transform over time by concentrating on their urban morphological characteristics.
The conference sets up an academic and professional arena in which urban morphology would be explored through heritage
conservation-based urban transformation, regeneration-based urban transformation, and (re)development-based urban
transformation within the rich urban context of south-eastern Mediterranean cities. The sub-themes of the conference are as follows:
• Transformation of Urban Form
• Architecture, Heritage and Urban Form
• Conservation of Urban Landscape
• Public Space Network

O âmbito e a extensão da morfologia urbana como um cluster de ciências interdisciplinares dedicadas à explicação do ambiente construído expandiu-se muito nos últimos anos, particularmente com o desenvolvimento de análises baseadas na matemática. Isto, incontestavelmente, enriqueceu o campo como um todo, mas este panorama de interesses mais vasto em nada afeta a centralidade de um enquadramento de síntese, cultural e historicamente sensível. Espera-se que esta edição portuguesa de Alnwick, Northumberland venha a encorajar uma geração crescente de morfólogos no mundo lusófono a aumentarem a sua familiaridade com uma das mais significativas explanações fundacionais de teoria e método na tradição histórico-geográfica de morfologia urbana.

The goal will be achieved through
Lectures intended to cover the theoretical part of the school’s teaching.
They will be held by:
• Isufitaly teachers giving lectures to introduce the students to the local UM methods (Italian-processual school).
• Guest teachers giving lectures on their research methods in UM.
• Guest professionals to give lectures on their design experience linked to the study of urban form.
Field surveys, organized by host teachers, will guide the students in practical urban analysis. The team of teachers will also provide the basic cartography helpful in reading the various case studies.
Studio activities, intended as reading exercises and practical drawings concerning the selected urban fabrics. They will also involve some hints on the architectural design related to the fabric studied. The students’ work will be discussed with the contribution of the host teachers, including local academics and professionals.
Minimum Requirements for the application are:
• 4th-year Architecture or Urban Planning student
• Some experience in urban form studies
To apply, interested students are required to send:
• name and surname
• date of birth, place of residence and nationality, email address
• a brief academic and professional CV and a motivation letter (maximum 4000 characters in all) containing all data considered useful for the evaluation (schools, universities and post-graduate courses attended, professional experiences, publications, etc. )

To support the dissemination of UM studies, Isuf will provide a grant to an African Student.
A final dinner will be organized on the 28th in a nearby restaurant (included in the fee). The fee does not include accommodation costs and the optional tour which will be organized on Sunday 26th of June.
