The purpose of the Research Week is to create an integrated platform for exchanging ideas, where researchers of various backgrounds share their research results and reflect on coming activities. Liveability, as a common denominator for multidimensional actualities of architecture and urban planning, invites researchers to focus their attention on the quality of the environment, user needs, and flexibility of solutions at all scales and research areas.
During RESEARCH WEEK 2023 «Liveable Cities, Buildings, Heritage» researchers presented the actualities of their research, as well as discussed urban environment and architectural quality issues.

Organizers
Research is an important source for all activities of the Riga Technical University. Participation in research projects, conferences, workshops, preparation of publications, work on the publication of a scientific journal creates the basis for ensuring quality studies. Modern challenges and the rapid development of technologies create the need to create interdisciplinary and cross-sector cooperation for solving complex problems. The School of Architecture develops and improves cooperation in the field of fundamental and applied interdisciplinary research with other universities, educational, state administration and municipal institutions, companies, as well as professional and public organizations. In our research projects, we work in multidisciplinary international teams and actively cooperate with the research programs of organizations such as DOCOMOMO, EAAE, AESOP, and several other research centers around the world.
