Dear Student,

I am writing to you on behalf of the world’s largest event on Sustainable Architecture: The UIA World Congress of Architects, which will take place in Copenhagen July 2-6, 2023.

My name is Line Luna Thygesen and I am working as a Project Manager at UIA2023CPH to involve students and young professionals at the World Congress.

Globally we face a lot of challenges that must be solved, to bring us towards a sustainable future for all! I believe that your perspective is important to bring into play for a nuanced understanding of the world and how we can design for it within the built environment. You are experts in the expectations we have for our common future. I encourage you to take part in activities before and during the event and help drive the change.

As a World Congress it is essential for us to involve students and invite you to attend an event that is normally reserved for industry professionals and decision-makers. Students are not often included in the conversation. We must do better than that! That is why we do our best to represent young voices in many ways. We have made it easy for you to get to know us and get involved in the World Congress.

About the World Congress of Architects CPH 2023

The World Congress is held every three years in different countries and will be hosted in 2023 for the first time in Copenhagen, Denmark by the UIA Nordic section: Denmark, Finland, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. The International Union of Architects UIA was founded in 1948 and unites national architect associations in more than 100 countries.

SUSTAINABLE FUTURES – LEAVE NO ONE BEHIND
Our goal next year is to promote, discuss, create and showcase architecture as a vital tool to achieve the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals. We will share sustainable solutions, examine the latest research results and join our efforts to make the 28th UIA World Congress a milestone in the history of how architecture can commit to make a sustainable future for all. In this sense, the UIA World Congress of Architects in 2023 has already begun, and you are invited to join us in Copenhagen July 2-6, 2023.

We encourage you to take part in sessions and engage in the congress with your perspective, experience, and solutions on the UN 17 SDGs.
