2022 CAFÉ

CASA is delighted to host the digital poster gallery for CAFÉ’s Call for Equity posters.

The Canadian Architecture Forums on Education (CAFÉs) are part of an ongoing outreach project launched in 2019 to discuss and debate the role of architectural education and research in shaping Canada’s future.

The initiative involves all 12 Canadian schools of architecture and their extended communities.

Knowledge and ideas mobilized through these forums are informing the development of an architecture policy for Canada. The forums are enabling students, educators and academic researchers to play meaningful roles in shaping a policy framework, its priorities, ambition and depth of vision.

Between October 2019 and March 2020 five in-person forums were hosted at five universities across Canada. Key outcomes of these forums, an online survey, and student manifestos were published in the CAFÉ Summary Report (Sept. 2020).

A series of workshops and CAFÉ Capital event focused issues on social justice will take place in 2022.
