The International Meeting on City, Contemporaneity and Urban Morphology (IMCCUM) will be hosted by the Federal University of Pelotas (UFPel), in November. In its 7th edition, the event reiterates the cross-cutting of the different approaches to urbanism.

This edition’s theme is “Women and Urban Places”. Considering the formation of cities and the capitalist, patriarchal and colonialist urban logic, the 7th IMCCUM encourages discussions that go against such norm. Thus, it proposes the visibility of women, both in knowledge formation about urban theories and practices, and in their experiences with the city.

The event is organized by both the Graduate Program in Architecture and Urbanism and the Laboratory of Urbanism of the School of Architecture and Urbanism. The Meeting is held with the support of the Foundation for Research Support of the State of Rio Grande do Sul.
