WEBINAR '' Spanish architects in China: round trip ''
Organized the Urban and Territorial Development and Sustainability Working Group of the China Chair on June 16 at 4:00 p.m., it is a cycle of two appointments in which they have discussed the internalization process of the 21st century and the global crisis of the 2008, which encouraged and forced a massive emigration of young Spaniards to different parts of the world, including architects who decided to go to China due to its great urban growth.
Topic: In this second meeting, the role of various generations that have worked in China in the 21st century is analyzed, counting on the representation of those who have worked as international architects without actually residing in the country, those who went to work to China and stayed and those who, after a while, returned or moved to other places.
