UEMF hosts the first day of the NEGIA Summit: Architecture for the next generation

The Euromed University of Fes had the honor of hosting last Wednesday the first day of the NEGIA Summit (Next Generation Impact Architects), an event organized by the Federation of French-speaking Architects of Africa (FAFA), around the theme “ Architecture for the next generation ».

This inaugural day, held at the University Conference Center, brought together young architects, urban planners and experts from across the African continent to collectively reflect on the challenges and prospects of African architecture in the face of contemporary technological, environmental and social issues.

Discussions focused on several major axes, notably the impact of new technologies on architectural design, the presentation of the G40 texts and statutes (the Group of Architects under 40 of FAFA), as well as the role of younger generations in the sustainable transformation of African cities.

For students of the Euromed School of Architecture, Design and Urbanism (EMADU), this meeting represented a rich learning experience, offering them the opportunity to exchange directly with young architects, international experts and representatives of African professional orders. It broadened their perspective on the realities of the profession while highlighting the central place of creativity, technology and sustainability in contemporary architecture.

This first day of the NEGIA Summit was distinguished by a spirit of inspiration, collaboration and intergenerational transmission, true to the values of openness and excellence upheld by the Euromed University of Fes.
