EDRA53 Greenville

The Environmental Design Research Association (EDRA) invites practitioners, researchers, and educators to submit their proposals and join the 52nd annual conference. The conference will focus on how research, design, and relationships between people and environments contribute to the creation of justice. Current social, health, environmental, and justice challenges call for collaborative and transdisciplinary efforts to pursue intentional questioning of disciplinary borders and sensitive approaches to framing and solving pressing contemporary problems through research and practice.
