Track 01

Urban Geomorphology: Theoretical Foundations

This track will explore the theoretical underpinnings of urban geomorphology, emphasizing the integration of geomorphological principles in urban contexts. Discussions will focus on the methodologies that underpin the study of urban landscapes and their evolution.

Track 02

GIS Applications in Urban Studies

This session will highlight the role of Geographic Information Systems in analyzing urban environments and informing urban planning decisions. Participants will present case studies demonstrating innovative GIS applications in urban geomorphology and regional studies.

Track 03

Urban Sustainability and Resilience

This track will address the challenges of achieving sustainability in urban settings, focusing on the interplay between urban development and environmental health. Presentations will examine strategies for enhancing urban resilience against climate change and natural hazards.

Track 04

Urban Heritage and Geomorphological Classification

This session will delve into the classification of urban landscapes based on geomorphological characteristics and their historical significance. Discussions will include the preservation of urban geomorphological heritage in the face of modern development pressures.

Track 05

Urban Sprawl and Environmental Impact

This track will investigate the implications of urban sprawl on environmental health and urban ecosystems. Researchers will present findings on the socio-environmental consequences of expanding urban areas and potential mitigation strategies.

Track 06

Urban Climate Dynamics and Vegetation

This session will explore the relationship between urban climate, de-vegetation, and the impacts of re-vegetation initiatives in cities. Presentations will focus on empirical studies that assess the effectiveness of green infrastructure in urban settings.

Track 07

Ethical Considerations in Urban Development

This track will engage participants in discussions about the ethical implications of urban growth and development. Topics will include equitable access to urban resources and the responsibilities of planners and policymakers in shaping urban futures.

Track 08

Holistic Approaches to Anthropogeomorphology

This session will promote interdisciplinary approaches to understanding landscape change and its anthropogenic influences. Presentations will highlight case studies that integrate physical and life sciences in urban geomorphological research.

Track 09

Urban Planning: Green Approaches vs. Current Models

This track will compare traditional urban planning models with contemporary green approaches aimed at sustainable development. Discussions will focus on the effectiveness of these models in addressing urban challenges.

Track 10

Regional Studies: African and European Perspectives

This session will provide a platform for sharing insights from African and European regional studies related to urban geomorphology. Participants will discuss unique challenges and solutions in urban environments across different cultural and geographical contexts.

Track 11

Urban Development and the Built Environment

This track will examine the relationship between urban development and the alteration of the built environment. Presentations will focus on how geomorphological insights can inform sustainable urban design and planning practices.
