The Ibero-American Lighting Design Meeting (EILD) is a non-profit initiative led by a group of independent, active professionals. It serves as a space for reflection and the exchange of ideas among Ibero-American lighting designers, extending its influence worldwide. The spirit of the meeting promotes new ways of conveying the values of lighting design, emphasizing communication and collaboration across all disciplines related to the profession. The event began in 2010 in Valparaíso (Chile), followed by Querétaro (Mexico) in 2012, Medellín (Colombia) in 2014, and Ouro Preto (Brazil) in 2016, consistently supported by major professional lighting equipment manufacturers, associations, and national and international institutions.
The 2019 International Social Workshop (TSI) is being held as part of the Microcoast construction workshop in Máncora, the coastal tourism capital of the Piura region. It is organized by the Peruvian Organization of Architecture Students in collaboration with the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at the National University of Piura, which is accredited by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA).
