Turkey and Syria After the Earthquakes: Emergency Responses
Saturday, July 22 at 9:30AM
Center for Architecture (NYC), Salt (Istanbul) and Zoom
Turkey and Syria After the Earthquakes is a series of four panel discussions curated by Collective Action for Readiness, Recovery, and Resilience (CARRRE), a group of internationally-based Turkish architects and academics. CARRRE aims to amplify awareness among a global audience regarding the catastrophic repercussions of these earthquakes, and to provide agency to architects, planners, engineers, municipalities, and builders on the ground by assisting with local relief efforts, sharing professional expertise, and aiding in the development of long-term rebuilding strategies. These panels aim to provide an international platform for learning, debate, and actionable projects.
This first panel, “Emergency Responses,” will provide an overview of the affected regions, discuss ongoing response efforts, and explore avenues to pursue within the built environment to address urgent needs of impacted communities. Panelists include Hitoshi Abe, Illya Azaroff, FAIA, Ersin Gök, and Esin Pektas, AIA.
The discussion will be moderated by Celal Abdi Güzer, PhD.
This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required, please register here.

PUBLIC PANEL
Turkey and Syria After the Earthquakes: Mid-Term Relief and Transitional Programs
Saturday, July 29 at 9:30AM
Center for Architecture (NYC), Salt (Istanbul) and Zoom
The 7.8 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes that hit Southeastern Turkey and Syria on February 6, 2023, officially took an estimated 50–60,000 lives. Entire neighborhoods were destroyed in cities such as Kahramanmaraş, Adiyaman, and Hatay, with more than 160,000 collapsed or severely damaged buildings. The humanitarian crisis facing the region presents immediate aid and disaster relief challenges as well as concerns for long-term, safe, sustainable, and resilient rebuilding efforts.
“Mid-Term Relief and Transitional Programs” is the second panel in CARRRE’s four-part series. This panel will examine the challenges that arise from the extended occupancy of temporary disaster shelters, including housing, community spaces, and settlements. The speakers will address conventional post-disaster planning strategies and building techniques, and focus on alternative approaches developed for Turkey and other countries. These approaches will include transitional building techniques in short to mid-term developments, as well as alternate and innovative, traditional building techniques. Special attention will be paid to designs that retain a community’s sense of place and identity within social and environmental ecologies.
Panelists include Alp Arisoy, James Garrison, AIA, Yasmeen Lari, and Edward Ng, Ph.D.
The discussion will be moderated by Meltem Senol Balaban.
This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required, please register here.
