The Architecture Beyond Capitalism (ABC) Hub

The ABC Hub welcomes those with interests in and ideas for—however small, however fantastical—working out what it means to learn and practice architecture more collectively, more ethically and more sustainably.
Through collective participation the ABC Hub holds space to:

• find global allies for change-making projects and movements.
• test frameworks, formats and strategies for building better and lasting collective momentum;
• layout visions for architecture beyond capitalism—including alternatives and improvements to the status quo;
• develop disciplinary language and practices that are more open and inclusive;
• humanize the expectations and outcomes of design processes;
• explore and develop together in a messy process

This space is free, inclusive, supportive and open to all: students, educators, practitioners, constructors, and anyone interested in or passionate about affecting change. We invite individuals and collectives working to affect change in spatial production; individuals and collectives working with people, groups, communities or organisations to bring about an equitable tomorrow; individuals or collectives working with new organizational techniques for leveraging influence. We would like to learn from the experiences of others meeting this challenge, and foster a space to support those just starting out.

The ABC Hub is a project of the Academia Working Group of the Architecture Lobby
