SEEDS International Conference 2024 (Hybrid)

Description

Theme: Achieving Resilience through Sustainable Digitalization and Ecological Engineering in the 21st Century.

We are asking: How do we leverage the advancements in digital technology and industry 4.0 to promote sustainable and ecological engineering for society?

The SEEDS community is a confluence of experienced and early-career researchers from across the world and from diverse disciplines. 

This melting pot encourages exciting conversations and opportunities to collaborate. Members of the SEEDS community, who have met during previous years of the conference, are now working on projects and submitting research papers together.

If you're passionate about your research and eager to connect with a diverse community of like-minded individuals, the International SEEDS conference is for you.

The conference will follow a hybrid delivery model. The first day of the conference (27 Aug) will be online only, and the following two days (28 & 29 Aug) held in-person at Leeds Beckett University’s City Campus.

Women and Planning: From theory to practice

Description

In 2019, Leeds Beckett University hosted the Women and Planning Conference. This sought to build on the earlier women and planning work undertaken in the UK in the 80s-early 2000s with key actions such as The Women’s Design Service and Matrix architects (Berglund with Wallace, 2016), the insights of academics (Greed, 1994; Little, 1994) and attempts to include gender mainstreaming in planning practice (Greed, 2005; Reeves, 2002; RTPI, 2003; Reeves et al., 2023). The conference recognised a burgeoning interest in the issues again with the founding of Women in Planning and Urbanistas in 2012, online materials from the RTPI and broader discussions of gender mainstreaming (Roberts and Sanchez de Madriaga, 2013; Sanchez de Madriaga and Neuman, 2016) and gender and the rights to the city (Beebeejaun, 2017). The conference sought to (re)invigorate this conversation, including both academics and practitioners and led to a special edition of Town Planning Review featuring papers from the conference (Horwood, 2022). Horwood et al. (2022) made the case for the need to bring practitioners and academics together, to cultivate a conversation across boundaries where expertise and experience is shared to move planning practice forward.

Interest in women and the built environment more broadly has, and is continuing to grow, with moves to the mainstream in the UK (Criado-Perez, 2019; Kern, 2020, Make Spaces for Girls, 2024). There is work ongoing to apply this to planning practice, for example with the declaration of Glasgow as a feminist city (GCC, 2022), and work in London and West Yorkshire (GLA, 2022; LLDC, 2021; WYCA, 2023). Planning consultancies and public bodies have also produced reports (Arup, 2022; UN 2021) and lobbied Government (Turley, 2023). Outside of the UK, there are more examples to learn from (Dutton et al, 2022). With this, we have started to see welcome moves towards moving from theory to practice.
