The Scientific Initiation Congress in Architecture and Urbanism (CICAU) is designed as a forum for reflection and exchange for students, faculty, and graduates in architecture, urbanism, and related fields. It seeks to focus on, interpret, analyze, and debate current issues in our cities through scientific initiation and academic research—a practice often overlooked in architecture and urbanism education. Consequently, we believe it is essential to reinforce the importance of research and the role of the student as a protagonist in their professional development.

The sidewalk is the most democratic area of our home—we don't always remember this, but it is indeed part of our home, our building, and we believe it can be a space that goes beyond mere circulation. We view the sidewalk as a place for social interaction, tolerance, and respect for others, where we must engage with people of all genders, races, religions, ages, and social, physical, and mental conditions. In other words, it is a space where the full exercise of citizenship takes place.
