We must combat the built environment's contribution to global air pollution. We believe that sustainable buildings and cities are a fundamental part of the solution to reducing the environmental and health impacts of global air pollution.

"Learning to Teach, Teaching to Learn" is the topic of the fourth IAAC Redes session, which will be held as an open, online event broadcast via streaming.
"We had become accustomed to self-exploitation, exhaustion, competition, and perfect performance. However, a microscopic virus forced us to stop (perhaps for the better, at least in this regard). We had to learn to care for ourselves. After more than a year of the pandemic, we became aware of our vulnerability and our dependence on others... we have not only learned to care for ourselves and others, but we have also established relationships of care with 'non-human' agents: plants or pets within our homes; heritage buildings and neighborhoods in our cities; or even landscapes and ecosystems on a territorial scale.
The Independent Architect Observatory is the first forum for reflection aimed at redefining our profile to ensure our work remains relevant to societal progress.

On Saturday, April 5, the Eiffel bookstore will host the launch of the book Avenida Brasil rodovia metropolitana. Por um estatuto contemporâneo do espaço infraestrutural. Winner of the 2023 IAB National Award, the book advocates for the concept of the "metropolitan highway." Based on a case study of the urban segment of the BR-101 highway in Rio de Janeiro, the work explores the road far beyond the notion of mobility, positioning it as a key space for rethinking design and urban planning in Brazilian metropolises and the Global South.
Featuring a rich and extensive iconography, the book includes a Morphological Atlas of Avenida Brasil. This visualization enables the proposal of "design logics between highway and territory" as catalysts for the relationships and spatialities implicit in the interface between infrastructure and human occupation.
The event will feature a conversation between the author, Pedro de Moraes, and Professor Guilherme Lassance, author of the book In-formal. Infraestrutura urbana revisitada, which will also be launched at the event. The discussion will be moderated by architect and urban planner Pedro Sales, a professor at Escola da Cidade.
