As part of the 17th World Congress of the OWHC to be held in Cordoba from September 24 to 27, 2024, a poster exhibition is being organized under the theme “Habitability in Historic Centers”, to showcase the wide variety of initiatives developed within member cities.

All OWHC member cities are therefore invited to produce a poster presenting an innovative initiative that their city has implemented to improve habitability. The initiative can take the form of a project, a policy, an action, an event, etc.

Initiatives must address one of the four strategic axes, which emerged from the collaborative work of the cities involved in the OWHC Roadmap, namely:

1. Requalify the Habitat
2. Refreshing the City
3. Transform mobility
4. Regenerate the urban environment

To help you understand the 4 axes, and to give you a clear idea of which axis the initiative you wish to promote might refer to, we invite you to read their description by CLICKING HERE.

The posters will be displayed in a high-traffic area of the Cordoba Convention Center for the duration of the event. Be creative and showcase your city’s initiative!

Technical information

Your poster must be produced in one of the OWHC’s three working languages: English, French or Spanish. However, please note that for this edition, the OWHC is offering to translate your poster into the two other languages you have not chosen for the production of your poster.

The poster proposal must be submitted to the General Secretariat no later than July 26, 2024.
