Escuela de Arquitectura, Urbanismo y Diseño - EAUD

Our projects exemplify regenerative and ecological-responsive design in the Colombian Caribbean region from the Global South, assessed through active learning methodologies, sustainability competencies, and community engagement. Accordingly, in the Mallorquín Swamp, “El Bioma” reconnects community and nature, transforming a degraded territory into a resilient landscape where water, life, and urban memory intertwine. Likewise, in this context, “At the Edge of the Swamp” reimagines the swamp as a landscape symbol, restoring nature and reconnecting community through memory and care. “Water Memories” aside, is a green lung that restores an untouched area with preexisting wetlands, where Calamar’s resilient community reconnects and protects their town from climate change. Finally, “Rehabilitating the Riverbanks” intervenes two bodies of water neglected by conventional urban planning and the local communities, reimagined as socio-ecological axis that fosters nature-rich urban living.
