    IIDA Summit-3 | 2nd & 3rd September, 2023

    The IIDA summit is a Virtual Architectural Event spanning 2 days.

The virtual event will take place on the 2nd and 3rd of September 2023, providing participants with a unique opportunity to explore the latest trends, breakthroughs, and challenges in the architectural world, all from the comfort and convenience of their homes and offices.

    This year’s summit titled, “Architecture & Beyond – Building Communities: By the People For the People”, aims to address solutions and ideas for improvements in the realm of construction in India. Architecture for the community is a powerful concept that goes beyond designing buildings. It revolves around creating spaces that inspire, engage, and strengthen the social fabric of neighbourhoods and cities. Community-centric architecture prioritizes the needs, aspirations, and identities of the people it serves. It fosters inclusivity, encourages social interaction, and promotes a sense of belonging. It also creates environments that empower communities to thrive, fostering a sense of pride and ownership in the places they call home. Ultimately, this zest becomes a catalyst for positive social change, leaving a lasting legacy that enriches the lives of generations to come.
