DESCRIPTION:Since October 7th\, 2023\, at least 92% of housing in the Gaza
  Strip has been destroyed or damaged\, according to the United Nations' Of
 fice for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. The current scale of de
 vastation in Gaza has led organisations such as Amnesty International to l
 abel the conflict as "live-streamed genocide". This symposium brings archi
 tects\, urban planners\, anthropologists\, and researchers together to exa
 mine the spatial\, political\, and evidentiary dimensions of Gaza's destru
 ction and its aftermath. Irit Katz\, Nick Newman\, Stefan Tarnowski\, and 
 Prof. Farid Al-Qeeq will explore urgent questions: How do we document and 
 bear witness to these spectacles of conflict? What role does architecture 
 play in resistance\, reconstruction\, and accountability? And how might we
  think about Gaza's future beyond the frameworks of perpetual crisis and h
 umanitarian catastrophe?
