LVIV BUILD FORUM is a professional event for architects, urbanists, developers, and investors focused on shaping high-quality, responsible, and sustainable built environments in Ukrainian cities. The Forum creates a space for meaningful professional dialogue between the architectural community and key stakeholders of the construction process — those who directly influence the character of cities, their development scenarios, and the quality of everyday life. At the core of the discussions is the role of architecture as a driver of systemic change: from residential and public spaces to complex urban and infrastructure solutions.

Call for Project Submissions: Shared stewardship for nature
What’s That Green? Governance Lab is excited to launch an open call for projects that demonstrate good practice in the long-term co-care and co-maintenance of urban green spaces together with civil society. We are not looking for governance models where green spaces are solely managed by public or private actors, nor where citizens are acting entirely on their own. Our focus is on blended stewardship models - where cities, private organizations, and civil society care for green spaces together.

Scaling for Enough – How do we scale solutions while knowing the limit of "enough"? Imagine a construction industry not only driven by profit and growth, but also by sufficiency, care, long-term visions, and urgent action. This year's theme at Building Green CPH is "Scaling for Enough", unfolding across five stages at Lokomotivværkstedet in central Copenhagen on 29–30 October. Together, we will explore concepts such as moderation and sufficiency in a time when construction must both slow down and reduce emissions, while simultaneously finding solutions that create more affordable housing. Join us in identifying our real needs and, with sufficiency in mind, discovering solutions that can truly make a difference and ensuring they become widely accessible.
As the world grows in complexity, multiplying both its challenges and opportunities for innovation, so does the architecture profession. Positioned as mediators in a complex system, architects increasingly step out of the traditional office and into laboratories, town halls, and communities. They are developing new materials, reassessing urban policies, and responding directly to society's most pressing needs.
