SOUR to Co-found CARRRE - Collective Action for Readiness, Recovery, and Resilience

July 10, 2023

The team of SOUR joins forces with fellow the resources and talents of internationally-based Turkish architects, urban planners, engineers, and academics to collaborate with similarly situated local professionals, businesses, community organizations, municipalities, and builders on the ground in Turkey and Syria.

CARRRE has partnered with the American Institute of Architects NY (AIANY) and Salt (Istanbul) to focus solely on the rebuilding efforts in the Southeastern part of Turkey and Northern Syria after the February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras earthquakes. The rebuilding effort provides an opportunity to advance new technologies and architectural and construction processes to create a safer, more sustainable, resourceful, and resilient built environment. Through its contributions, CARRRE hopes to build awareness and give architects, planners, and engineers more agency for future projects, provide resources in ongoing efforts, and improve lives through design.

Four hybrid educational panels are being presented simultaneously at AIANY in NYC and at Salt in Istanbul. We will also be collaborating with Columbia Global Centers | Istanbul. You can join the panels in-person in NYC or Istanbul, or register for online participation through Zoom. The four panels will be followed by a symposium in Istanbul in the Fall - date to be announced, stay tuned.
