The event is being held June 29-29, 2019 in Antwerp, Belgium, under the heading “Practice of Teaching | Teaching of Practice: the Teacher’s Hunch.”

The mission of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA) is to lead architectural education and research. ACSA, unique in its representative role for schools of architecture, provides a forum for ideas on the leading edge of architectural thought. Issues that will affect the architectural profession in the future are being examined today in ACSA members schools. The association maintains a variety of activities that influence, communicate, and record important issues. Such endeavors include scholarly meetings, workshops, publications, awards and competition programs, support for architectural research, policy development, and liaison with allied organizations.
