This Superstudio meets a momentous pedagogical challenge: To prepare tomorrow\u2019s designers to meaningfully contribute to improving housing for all.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of the Superstudio format is the belief that there is a profound strength in numbers and that all big challenges require collaboration. Thirteen higher learning institutions are participating in this Superstudio to share knowledge, inspiration, and foster solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>Participants in the Superstudio we will be engaging with a wide range of knowledge and techniques, inventing new design methods and solutions, and building a movement for change. At each participating school, one or more studios or courses will be dedicated to the theme of ending housing alienation. A nation-wide kickoff event on September 6 will be the first event to bring all students and instructors together for discussion and sharing of course content and topics.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the term, there will be lectures and events that will be held online and\/or recorded that will be shared with students across all schools, as well as a shared set of resources (readings, videos, websites, and other media) that students can refer to. At the end of each academic term, the design solutions created by students from across the country will be<br \/>\nshared in a digital exhibition.<\/p>\n<p>The outline of the project, including a list of the courses at each university as well as the shared principles and structures, is available now on the Superstudio website &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/superstudio.aaha.ca\/\">https:\/\/superstudio.aaha.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Participating Institutions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&nbsp;Athabasca University<\/li>\n<li>British Columbia Institute of Technology<\/li>\n<li>Carleton University<\/li>\n<li>Dalhousie University<\/li>\n<li>McGill University<\/li>\n<li>OCAD University<\/li>\n<li>Toronto Metropolitan University<\/li>\n<li>Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al<\/li>\n<li>University of British Columbia<\/li>\n<li>University of Calgary<\/li>\n<li>University of Manitoba<\/li>\n<li>University of Toronto<\/li>\n<li>University of Waterloo<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><em>The Superstudio is organized by the collective <strong>Architects Against Housing Alienation<\/strong>, who <\/em><em>represented Canada at the 2023 Venice Architecture Biennale.
