ANNUAL CONGRESS VI
11-13 May 2011, Glasgow

'Liveable Neighbourhoods'

The Academy's sixth Annual Congress took place in the unique city of Glasgow, amongst the backgrop of an amazing 30-year journey of transformation - from 'the worst corner of Britain' (Observer 1980) to 'a fantastic world class city' (Conde Naste)

The Congress focused on Liveable Neighbourhoods, looking at their Renaissance, Regeneration and Reconstruction, exploring their resilience in terms of economy and social capital. Themes explored include placemaking; the psychology of place; community, culture and identity; health and liveability and making things happen in a recession.

Here, we bring you the learning from the Congress compiled by Architecture + Design Scotland
