Longo International Architecture Internship participants Natalie DeLiso, M.Arch ’24, and Michael Thut, M.Arch ’24, share thoughts on their transformative experience with MASS Design Group in Kigali, Rwanda. The partnership with MASS Design Group, a nonprofit firm based in Boston and Kigali, provides students with practical training at the forefront of public-interest architecture. Students are exposed to cultures, landscapes, socio-political considerations, environmental concerns, and other challenges that might differ from what they experience at home. These backgrounds are becoming increasingly critical with the growing international nature of architectural practice.

Lesli Hoey, associate professor and director of doctoral studies in urban and regional planning, writes about the urgent role of urban architecture in a new book. Hoey contributed two chapters to Planning for Equitable Urban Agriculture in the United States (Springer, 2024). “Environmental planners could learn from numerous large-scale UA operations in the Global South that divert waste from landfills, use urban organic waste to improve soil, and preserve farmland greenbelts to conserve water, filter contaminants, and reduce flooding,” Hoey writes.

Taubman's new architecture chair, Antje Steinmuller, talks affordable housing with Ian Volner for Dwell. Joined by colleague and Taubman professor Sharon Haar, the pair discuss how academia is taking on the national crisis. "I also think the question of climate change and how that affects housing is a really pressing one. Being in Michigan means having all these other experts present to tackle these questions through interdisciplinary collaboration—something I'm really hoping to foster, because with housing, there are so many angles that need to be considered." Says Steinmuller. Read the full interview: https://lnkd.in/d_z6NWGS
