This track will pay special attention to the current facts and figures that shape our world, as listed by the Sustainable Development Goals in the Goal 11.

Goal 11: Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. We recall, in particular, that today the half of humanity lives in cities today, 95 per cent of urban expansion in the next decades will take place in developing world and 828 million people live in slums today, a number that keep rising.

Considering issues of Sustainability of Cities, Regions, but also those of Cultural Landscapes and Communities, ranging from regional to local scale, we shall prioritize submissions that pursue the targets 9 and 10 of the this Goal 11, which are:

"By 2020, substantially increase the number of cities and human settlements adopting and implementing integrated policies and plans towards inclusion, resource efficiency, mitigation and adaptation to climate change, resilience to disasters, and develop and implement, in line with the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, holistic disaster risk management at all levels, and "Support least developed countries, including through financial and technical assistance, in building sustainable and resilient buildings utilizing local materials".

Colombia is one of the most environmental and culturally diverse countries of the globe. Also, holds significant spiritual memories and religious traditions. Bogotá, in turn, presents a high urban dynamic and a vibrant social and cultural life. Within such an inspiring conference location, we would like to encourage sensible approaches to inclusive design of spaces and buildings balancing technology, the use of local resources and social equity. The goal of this track is, therefore, to collect lessons learned from research and projects on green planning, architecture and design in order to point out opportunities, constraints, priorities and revisiting global and local adaptive solutions to advance sustainability innovation in urban and regional design, planning and architecture.

Contributions from the followings areas are particularly sought after

Discussion of key concepts, methods and applications in cutting-edge sustainable urban design and architecture.
