Beschreibung

This optional module allows for various kinds of research studies. It is closely connected to the five units of the Liechtenstein School of Architecture and is usually part of ongoing research projects. The supervision consists of directing the students towards clear results within a given field of research. The individual study is reviewed within the respective unit.

Urbanism, Architecture & Society:
In collaboration with the Integrated Sustainable Development (ISD) Foundation and their interdisciplinary team, you are invited to be part of an ongoing neighborhood development project in Oniipa, in northern Namibia. ISD is conducting a pilot project to define alternative modes of urban development that are sensitive to places, empower residents with limited financial resources to flourish, and are designed according to socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable principles.
The research can be formulated around one of the three following topics:
1. methods of participatory planning to inquire about cultural practices and socio-economic needs of future residents;
2. context-specific, effective, and applicable urban planning tools, and coordination with local planning authorities; and
3. economically viable strategies (including e.g. green technologies) to ensure the high-impact implementation of civic infrastructures.
