Welcome to the GÉOARCHI HAL collection

The Geoarchitecture laboratory (EA 7462) carries out multi-disciplinary work, led by researchers from a wide range of scientific fields: urban planning and development, ecology, geography, as well as history, sociology and economics. The themes addressed concern the dynamics of territories, whether urban, rural, natural or semi-natural. They study practices and activities (housing, commerce, tourism), the production of urban forms and the discourses and representations they give rise to (metropolises and dense cities, diffuse urbanization). This set of concerns must respond to contemporary issues of sustainability, biodiversity maintenance, societal impacts and economic dynamics.
