Conference Report: Cities in evolution. Diachronic transformation of urban and rural settlements

AACCP (Architecture, Archaeology and Contemporary City Planning) is a multidisciplinary and progressive network, which has gathered together researchers, experts and practitioners from various fields to discuss topics related to urban development and city planning since 2014. One of the main aims of the network is to promote collaboration between different actors and increase the understanding of the profitable co-existence of the past, present and future within urban and rural environments. With this task in mind, we organized the eighth AACCP symposium, Cities in evolution: diachronic transformation of urban and rural settlements, in collaboration with the Dynamic Research on Urban Morphology (DRUM) laboratory at Özyeğin University in Istanbul and After Damages International Academy.
