5! Crucial Decades of City Building UBC School or Architecture and Landscape Architecture Nov 4, 2014 : 6:00 pm to Nov 6, 2014 : 9:45 pm

An extraordinary lecture series from the new Urban Design Forum, a collaboration between UBC’s School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture and the City of Surrey, and part of the launch of the new UBC Master of Urban Design Program.

Greater Vancouver is simultaneously at the leading edge of the global urban tsunami, and being overturned by it. This two-day forum will reveal the processes that are upending Vancouver and the processes fuelling the metastatic growth of cities far distant. This forum brings world leaders to Vancouver to discuss these phenomenon and shed light on the global forces that are shaping this place and our emerging urban world. 

While attendance of the two lectures is free, all events are ticketed. Please visit http://www.urbandesignforum.ca/ for more information or to register for tickets
