Despre EASA


EASA [European Architecture Students Assembly] este o rețea internațională de studenti şi tineri arhitecţi care în colaborare cu profesioniști în domeniul arhitecturii dar și al artei și alte domenii conexe, investighează situația arhitecturii în prezent, orașul și problemele sale, legatura dintre arhitectură și tehnologie și alte probleme de actualitate. EASA este în primul rând o platformă de comunicare, schimb de idei, experiențe și reflexii, un punct de început pentru interacțiunea profesională.

Aceasta a fost fondată în 1981, când studenții arhitecți din Liverpool au invitat colegi din restul Europei să îi ajute la formularea de soluții pertinente privind problemele orașului lor. Aproximativ 250 de studenți au răspuns la invitație, punând bazele acestei rețele. De atunci, în fiecare an se organizează o școală de vară, de fiecare dată în altă țară, reunind până la 500 de studenți arhitecți atât din Europa, dar și din restul lumii. Întregul eveniment este organizat de studenți pentru studenți, fiind independent de orice formă de orice sistem educațional universitar.

INCM [Intermediate National Contacts Meeting] este o convenţie a reprezentanților fiecărei țări implicate în EASA. Acest eveniment cuprinde dezbateri, discuții, și conferințe la care vor participa studenți arhitecți din întreaga Europă. Tot la INCM se pun în discuție valorile EASA și direcția pe care aceasta o urmează.

Identity
EASA [European Architecture Students Assembly] is an international young architects network which, in collaboration with professional architects and artists, investigates today’s architecture, city and technology. It is a communication platform for the exchange of ideas, experiences and reflections, the starting point for interactions in the city field.

History
EASA was founded in 1981 when architecture students from Liverpool, invited their fellow students from the rest of Europe to come and discuss, proposing solutions for the problems of their city. Approximately 300 young architects gathered, starting up with EASA’s collective institution: “starting up the easa experience”, was the first theme of the congress. Since then, every year, European architects-students, meet in a different city with the intention of exchanging ideas and views on architecture, as well as acting within the city itself.

EASA
400 young architects meet for two weeks every summer participating in lectures, conversations, workshops, exhibitions, related to the theme proposed by the specific city. The theme is related to reflections posed by the place of conduction itself and the actions-interventions are in both the theoretical and practical levels.

The EASA network
Apart from the annual meeting, EASA supports the international communication and exchange network through its’ representatives in every country [National Contact/ N.C.]. The representatives [2 for each country] communicate with each other during the whole year and meet every November, for one week [Intermediate National Contact Meeting] in a different country. During these meetings the results from the latest summer meeting are being discussed, and the proposal for the next meeting is being chosen.

Legal framework
EASA is an organization that takes legal substance every time, at the level of the country that undertakes the organization of the annual congress. Each country defines the selection procedure of its representatives and participants in the EASA activities. The NCmeeting [National Contact meeting] is the EASA decision-making instrument. These are meetings with participants of the representatives from every European country that take place [a] during the annual summer congress and [b] every November at the special INCmeeting [Intermediate National Contact meeting].
