Following the strong presence of globally themed content at AIA26, we have a great opportunity to build even further momentum for AIA27. The Global Practice Committee is keen to see an even broader range of perspectives, voices, and case studies represented next year.
Proposals are now open for workshops, seminars, and tours at AIA27, with a submission deadline of July 21st. This is a highly valuable platform to showcase the depth of work happening across the globe, highlight emerging issues, and bring forward lessons learned from vastly diverse markets and project types.
The submission process is straightforward and designed to be accessible. Each proposal requires a concise summary of up to 200 words, a set of learning objectives, and confirmation of speakers. For guidance on developing a strong submission, please review the proposal tips here: View proposal guidance
Submissions can be completed through the official portal here: Submit your proposal
If you have been involved in a project, initiative, or research effort that could contribute to a global dialogue, I strongly encourage you to consider submitting as part of the Global Practice Committee.
Let's continue to build a strong global presence at AIA27 and ensure that our collective work is well represented.
Sincerely,
