Women* in Architecture Belgium seeks new and alternative ways of expressing the
progresses of architecture, underlining the role of the women working to its evolution.
Besides highlighting their architectural work, WIAB aims to showcase the leadership skills
female architects have, giving them the space to become role models for the future generations and increase the proportion of women in leadership roles within architecture.
Women* in Architecture Belgium warmly invites researchers, writers, critics, professionals and scholars in architecture, interior design, landscape design and urban planning to submit an original abstract for consideration at our upcoming ‘Think Tank 2023’ - Women in Architecture Belgium Event.
Guest curator Katrien Vandermarliere invites you to write about the following topics:
1. Liquid, fluid, flowing. Concepts and values take on new interpretations in the world
and in architecture.
2. Representation of women in architecture. What are new role models and why are
they important?
3. Ecofeminism / Regenerative architecture and self-building, activist and feminist.
