We invite you to contribute to the conference
"Reinventing the City 2024 - Blueprints for messy cities?"
!! We have extended the submissions deadline to November 14th, 2023 !!
The AMS Scientific Conference (AMS Conference) explores and discusses how cities can transform themselves to become more livable, resilient and sustainable while offering economic stability. In the second edition of 'Reinventing the City" (23-25 April 2024), the overarching theme will be 'Blueprints for messy cities? Navigating the interplay of order and messiness'. In three captivating days, we will explore 'The good, the bad, and the ugly' (day 1), 'Amazing discoveries' (day 2) and 'We are the city' (day 3).
Call for abstracts
The AMS Conference seeks to engage scientists, policymakers, students, industry partners, and everyone working with and on cities from different backgrounds and areas of expertise. We therefore invite you to submit your scientific paper abstract, idea for a workshop or special session with us. Submissions should be dedicated to exploring the theme 'Blueprints for messy cities?'. We especially invite young, urban rebels to raise their voice, as they are the inhabitants of our future cities.
