Viví Francia is the name of the French week, which aims to showcase the French presence across various fields. AdbA has selected gastronomy, architecture, and music, combining them in an iconic venue to offer you an exclusive experience in Buenos Aires.

As part of the 4th edition of the Arq Film Fest, the exhibition "The Image of the Architect" will be held in the south corridor of the historic building, presented by Luis Miguel Arana—KLAUS, a special guest of the event.

Artist and social architect Santiago Cirugeda will build a house suspended in mid-air inside Nave 11, developing its full artistic potential by inviting creators—Llorenç Barber and Montserrat Palacios, Ignacio Marín Bocanegra, Vértebro, and Los Bárbaros—as well as spectators, to live in and experience it. Once its time at Naves Matadero concludes, the house will be rebuilt by members of the Network of Feminist Women for Gender Equity in Development; the Amalgama Association, a group of Latin American women fighting against gender-based violence; and the Dinamia Cooperative and Trabe Foundation, both of which specialize in integration processes.

Exhibition organized at the University of Beira Interior (UBI), within the Integrated Master's in Architecture program of the Department of Civil Engineering and Architecture.

The Ibero-American Congress on Technology and Innovation brings together more than 30 national and international leaders from the construction industry. This three-day event explores advancements and developments in the sector from a cutting-edge perspective, specifically designed for professionals and students seeking growth, training, professional updates, and the development of new ideas.

The TERRABRASIL congresses provide an opportunity to foster the study, dissemination, and development of earth architecture and construction in the country, while also strengthening relationships and facilitating the exchange of information and experience among practitioners and interested parties. By bringing this edition to Rio de Janeiro, the goal is to encourage the creation of research groups and centers in this field, which remain scarce in the region.
The main characteristics of the TerraBrasil events are:

In 2018, Bolivia will host an edition of ELEA (Latin American Meeting of Architecture Students) for the first time. This annual event is organized by the Latin American Coordinator of Architecture Students (CLEA) in collaboration with IBEA (Bolivian Integration of Architecture Students) and will feature ArchDaily en Español as a media partner.

To be held in the city of Santa Cruz, the XXXIII ELEA Organizing Committee has simultaneously launched an open call for students and young architects from Latin America to participate in the XI Latin American Student Architecture Biennial (XI BAEL), themed "Identity, Customs, and Traditions."

As part of the "Arquitectura de Selección" lecture series—dedicated in this edition to extreme territories—the Universidad Finis Terrae School of Architecture will host José Pedro Montt, a member of the expedition that completed the first longitudinal crossing of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field in the late 1990s.

The publication "Tres exposiciones, tres juegos" captures El Equipo Mazzanti's experience at the 2015 Chicago Architecture Biennial, the 2016 Milan Triennale, and the 2016 Venice Architecture Biennale. The book details the conceptualization of these exhibitions through texts, diagrams, plans, and photographs that highlight the specific interests of El Equipo Mazzanti.

Physical construction of the Museum of Historical Memory of Colombia in Bogotá is set to begin in the final quarter of 2018. In this talk, the three architects leading the project will discuss—for the first time—the challenges and lessons learned in designing a space for memory within a country where the conflict remains ongoing.

The realization and life of cities are reflections of the power and decision-making structures of the societies that sustain them. Given this, in a patriarchal society, can we expect women to have effective space, voice, and agency in the decisions that shape their daily lives?

IED presents the exhibition "Utensílios Nativos" (Native Utensils), featuring pieces crafted from certified native Brazilian wood by nine designers: Gustavo Dias, Hugo França, Juliana Llussá, Leonardo Bueno, Natasha Schlobach, Pedro Braga, Ricardo Graham, Rodrigo Ambrósio, and Sérgio Cabral.

Following the success of the first edition in 2016 in Curitiba and the second edition last year in Brasília, the COURB Institute is bringing the 3rd Collaborative Urbanism Meeting to Fortaleza, Ceará, on November 12, 13, and 14.

In 1960, Jane Jacobs' book The Death and Life of Great American Cities was a landmark for architecture, investigating the consequences of urban reconfiguration by modern urban planners and architects. Jacobs was also an activist involved in many mid-century movements in New York to halt the draconian plans of Robert Moses, a powerful builder with significant political influence.
