The John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design at the University of Toronto is excited to announce our winter 2021 talks & lectures schedule featuring speakers and themes that simultaneously address the urgency of our contemporary challenges, and the opportunities of our diverse programs—architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, visual studies, and forestry.
The Winter 2021 Talks, a series of thematic discussions titled “Resolutions and Agencies,” continues our exploration of design’s capacity to respond to activism, resilience, decolonization, density, narrative, and justice, among other topics. Lectures provide an in-depth view on a topic by one speaker, while talks allow for thematic discussion with a diverse group of featured speakers.
All programs are free, online, and open to the public. Find more details and register in advance at daniels.utoronto.ca/events.
